Dear Stack Exchanger's,

I want to reset my Arduino and system in every 24h for preventing frozen software and also other connectivity stuffs.

I wrote a program which connects a digital pin to reset pin of Arduino and I want to reset with that way.

For example my code :

unsigned long myTime; // Millis() function time value 
int timeExpected = 5000; // I want to reset it in every 5 secs for testing.
const int RESET_PIN = 2; // Reset pin's connection

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  pinMode(LED_BUILTIN,OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN,HIGH);
    myTime = millis();
    Serial.println(myTime); // prints time since program started
     delay(1000);

   if(myTime % timeExpected == 0) {
    digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);
    delay(1000);
     Serial.println("RESET");
    //digitalWrite(RESET_PIN, LOW);(I just test with LED_BUILTIN Low function)
    }

  }

I have tried the watchdog timer but I cannot do it for 24 hours. If you have another solution for reset in 24h please tell me and send me the related article/book/link etc. I will check and implement into my code.

UPDATE: I have done this but it does not reset at very 5s . Code :

#include <avr/wdt.h>
unsigned long myTime;
int timeExpected = 5000; 


void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Setup started :");
// make a delay before enable WDT
// this delay help to complete all initial tasks
delay(2000);
wdt_enable(WDTO_2S);
}


void loop() {
    myTime = millis();
    delay(1000);
    Serial.println(myTime); // prints time since program started
   if(myTime == timeExpected) {
     Serial.println("RESET");
    wdt_reset();
    }
