Oh, this is good. There should be heaps more of this stuff.
LOL sounds like we can have a nice debate on this one
How does disconnecting the battery protect the ECU?
The current flow will be between the tip and earth point, via the path of least resistance....and this will be generally the shortest most direct path.....
If somehow the ecu got in the way - eg earth at one end of said rig and welding at the other - disconnecting the batery is not going to isolate the ecu
Disconnecting the battery protects the battery and only the battery.....and this isn't any issue unless the battery is between the earth point and the point of welding....and even then I doubt it would be.....
yeah i agree. who's got time for all that battery disconecting stuff. Its never bothered me before.
