Going to need a little more info than this.

Does the boat start up?
Are there any lights on the dash flashing?
Is there water coming out of all the pee holes on the side (cooling water indicator pee holes)?
Did the boat recently get driven in really shallow water?
Are you sure it isn't the depth gauge?

The boat starts. No shallow water. Water coming out of pee holes. The check engine alarm sounds when I start the boat. I have to press the m button and it turns off. It sounds every couple of minutes. I have to keep pressing the M thank u very much for your response

Did you ever figure this out? I’m trying to disconnect the alarm so it doesn’t keep going off until I can get it in to service.

Before resetting the alarm you'll probably want to find and fix why the boat is alarming, right?

If the boat is fine, you can restart it to clear the alarm. The one time I had to do this, resetting the boat by turning the batteries on/off/on/off/on/off/on/off/on DID NOT WORK. Turning the keys to the motors, with the batteries in the continued on position, on/off x3 did work.

What do you mean with "with the batteries in the continued on position,"?
