Do you have a splitter valve for the thumb that could have gotten bumped ?

On excavators it is not done with splitter valves

If that machine has both 1 way and 2 way flow to the auxiliary lines make sure you’ve got 2 way selected. If it inadvertently got 1 way flow selected theirs your issue

Reverse the lines ,this will check if it’s fittings or valve or cylinder

This is the first thing I'd check too.
