Have you tried to take the jet out of the housing, put some spa cleaner or jet cleaner directly on them, let sit then take a toothbrush and scrub, move the nozzell around and scrub some more. Keep doing this untill the center part of the jet moves free. This type of jet also has to angle slightly to spin, if it is atrait as it looks in the pic it won't spin right, try pushing it at a slight angle.

Sometimes on mine, I can forcibly spin them with the pump on high and any contaminants seem to work themselves out. Since mine are removable, once a year I soak them in CLR and them rinse them out during a water change.

Those lokk like they mgiht be the kind that do not spin when the nozzle is pointed straight out like the picture shows them but when you push the nozzle off center they spin. Try that out first.
