Only left wheel drives

I have a 2007 electric JLG 2646 Es scissor lift. When attempting to drive only the left wheel drives. I popped the wire panel and all the wires and connections seem fine. Im assuming its the drive motor that needs to be replaced but id like to see if it might be something else.

When jacked up if the right wheel free spins with no resistance, then you are correct. Usually replace drive motors in a pair.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
