It should be obvious that both motors have to be geared the same.

There are other parts that can make the slide system not work. There is a slide controller that keeps the motors in synch. And wiring between the controller and each motor. It is possible for the wiring to get pinched, cut, shorted, etc.
It may be relatively “easy” to reach your motors, but not mine.
