The hour meter comes on and displays the number of hours 381.9 I then run the boat for 3 hours and it displays 384.9 I then shut down the boat and when I turn the power back on the hour meter displays 381.9 Is there something wrong with the meter? or is it me?

Is there anyway to tell how many hours are actually on the engine it is a BF130A?

Thank you for the response.

Thank you for the response.
What is HDS? Is this to find out how many hours are on the engine or is it to tell me why the hour meter tracks the usage and then resets when the power is off?

Is there a way to get that hds? Very few Honda outboard service shops in my area. Any help appreciated.

I think you could have been a little more helpful to a new member who gave a good description of his problem.

What year is your outboard? Likely too old to have a factory log on hours, it must be an add on of some sort. The pre say 2005 Honda outboards did not log hours, not sure what year this started on them but 130’s like my 1999 stopped production before this feature was available.

Post a picture of your hour meter.
