However, if the flow is weak or intermittent, you should remove the top of the affected pop-up, replace the internal filter with a clean one and then reinstall the sprayer top.

The irrigation water has been really gritty of late and the filters get partially or fully clogged. You can buy a small bag of extra filters at Lowes. Once you've replaced the dirty filters, they can be cleaned with your garden hose.

The only downside of doing this yourself is you must get down on the ground and then get up at each sprinkler head.

The filter has nothing to do with the OP's problem.
