If you disconnect the batt. [batt. neg term.] nothing electrical can go wrong, [shorts blown fuses] if you don't disconnect the batt., you hope that if something electrical does go wrong, all that happens is a fuse blows, I have seen burnt out wire harness in cars that the batt. was not disconnected and something went wrong
Why take a chance?
