No travel

I'm working on a 7 series Toyota fl with no travel and no error codes.
When I raise the front drive wheels off the ground and with direction selector fwd or rev the right wheel spins correctly while the left wheel shudders turning about 10 rpm vs the right wheel at approx 2600 rpm.
The diagnostics screen shows 36 volts to both but the left side has twice the temperature at both the motor and driver. Any easy way to tell if it's the controller or motor or is there something I'm missing? And why no error codes?
Thanks
Bill

Most likely the Speed sensor bearing in the motor, we have replaced several of them in the 7FBE models
