Go to Lowes or Home Depot and get a new fixed head pop up sprinkler unless its a rotator, then get a rotator. I use Orbit because they are easy to adjust, especially the rotators, and I buy multiples cause u never know when one will go out. Sprinkler heads are fairly cheap.
Take a small hand garden shovel and dig up the dirt all around the sprinkler head about a 6" diameter hole(if you have an empty bucket you can put the dirt in it ready for easy replacement. Dig until you are an inch or so below where the sprinkler head screws onto the source pipe. Unscrew the old head and then hand screw the new one on. Do not over tighten. They don't need to be too tight. Replace the dirt all around the sprinkler. With a small screw driver, pull up the pop up part of the of the head and hold it with one hand while you look to see where the opening is set and which direction. Usually there will be one side marked on top with a little knob indicating that is one side of the opening. Turn the top of the very top of the head adjusting it to the width you need. You can turn the sprinkler shaft with your hand to adjust the direction. You will hear it snap or pop, but that is normal.
Sounds involved, but it really isn't and it gets much easier to do once you've done it.
