With one leg working and the other not, it is almost surely a sheared pin (bolt), or one that fell out. Probably a 1/4" or maybe 5/16" bolt.

If there is no bolt missing, the problem may be in the gearing for that side. You can have some one actuate the switch while you watch that side. If the shaft into the gear box is turning and the jack is not moving, then a problem in the gear box.
