I have never really heard of fixing a fuel injector. Sometimes they can be cleaned up, but if it's faulty and not working properly, the proper procedure is to just replace the part.

A bad fuel injector can't be fixed, it must be replaced. Due to the construction of a fuel injector, the fine misting action can't be repaired.

It will depend if it is dirty or actually bad. Some injector can be rebuilt so consult the manufacturer to see if a kit is available if it's bad. If it just dirty then it can be cleaned with fuel treatments or by hand in some cases.
