I have a 2017 T590 bobcat. Long story short, I got it buried in mud, got it out, replaced gas, tested injectors, cleaned it out etc.

I got the engine running, however it was giving me low oil pressure. I changed the oil again for 15w40 in lieu of the 10w30.

Prior to the change when I had it running before it shut down, I engaged the hydraulics.

After changing the oil, the starter would not spin the flywheel. It would engage and just head up the wires. Starter is good.

I removed the starter and tried to turn the flywheel by hand. I removed the belt and it will not move. Not even with a pry bar.

Engine is Kubota 2607

Any thoughts on what the issue could be?

Check with test light on small wire on starter solenoid while someone tries to crank . Should light up .
if not solenoid may be bad or dirty battery cables ground etc
Does it "click" when trying to start?
if so solenoid may be burnt contacts inside.
