Default Just a few questions

I just had a few questions about my '91 Laredo.

1) I know this will probably sound ignorant and I dont blame you if you laugh, but what do I need to do to fix the read window-wiper fluid spray..thing? The thing that sprays window cleaner on the window so the blade can clean it.. The little part that the hose connects to broke off and now all I get is a straight stream backwards (which has aided me in a very LARGE amount of pranks on my friends)

2) I have an automatic. On the left of the steering wheel beside the rear window heater button is a white button with a little red light on the top.. What is this for? If needed I can take a pic of it and post it.

3) When examining my engine compartment, I looked at the radiator and saw two fans, one had a fan clutch and the other seemed electric.. Im confused. Why have both and what is each for?

4 and last) The gaskets/seals around my windows are cracked and look bad. I've considered replacing them. Does anyone know the mech name for them and where I might can get some more?

Thanks for any and all help guys.

Not sure about number 1
have to check 2
3) Mechanical fan runs all the time...obviously. It pulls air through your radiator too cool it better. The electrical fan, kicks on if extra cooling is needed, or when you have your a/c on.
not sure about 4 mine are cracked too haha.

Looks like 2&3 have a solid answer so far...

#4, not sure.

#1, Get a new spray nozzle, if its set the same as the "late" models, that little thing clips on and off the wiper arm, snag one at the JY!
