Abstract

A reset system for a watercraft outboard engine comprises: a control unit made up of a time summating portion for summating time for management of oil change time of an engine, a memory portion having a non-volatile memory such as an EEPROM for memorizing the cumulative time when the engine remains off and a determining portion for determining whether the cumulative time exceeds a set time by comparing the stored cumulative time with the set time; a warning portion for giving warning based on the comparison result when the cumulative time exceeds the set time; and a reset information entry portion for permitting reset information for clearing memory of the cumulative time in the memory means and setting it into the initial value. The reset system can make control of the watercraft outboard engine based on the cumulative time.
