Sounds like the jack that only went part way up has broken or has become disconnected. Otherwise it would have gone up with the other leg. When you crank on the landing gear does the rod leading into both legs turn? Or does only one of them? If they are both turning like they should the problem is internal of the leg and it would need to be replaced.
If only one leg has the rod turning then somehow they have become disconnected and would need to be repaired.
