What happens if you change the left and right motor cables at the RX 18?

That would suggest the RX18 is ok and it is the wiring or the motor.

Try unplugging the right motor and connecting it directly to a battery and see if the motor turns.

Yes, so is it, the wiring or the Motor himself has a failure. Have you tested the motor connected directly to the battery?
