Default 2000 Polaris sportsman 500 turns over but won’t start like battery is dead

I replaced the starter. I took it off and the magnet inside was shattered. I think something is binded up somewhere I took it through water and mud. So I wonder if something happened their. Even with jumping teminals on the sylanoid. It won’t start. What do y’all think?

You replace the starter bendix also? If not it could be hanging up on the flywheel. Best to replace as a set. Possible you got a crappy starter. https://www.dbelectrical.com/starter...ris/sportsman/
