I really like my Melnor Rear-Trigger 7-Pattern Hose Nozzle, so in this video I show you how I fix it when the trigger fails (handle doesn't work) or the nozzle leaks. If you have your receipt, most Melnor products come with a 3-7 year warranty and they'll ship you a new one; however, if you've lost the receipt or have already received a replacement (mine lasted one season), try this repair. While a new hose nozzle is $5-10 and the replacement parts for multiple repairs cost ~$5, your repaired nozzle will likely outlast a new one if you use stainless steel springs (available at your local hardware store).
In this video I repair a Melnor model # 471-173, but the setup is similar for most multi-pattern nozzles - ie, Melnor models 151-10, 301-416, T131-10, XT201, T201 and similar models by Viking, Gardenite, Gilmour, Prudance, and Acqua-Gun.
