Like Chuck mentioned, you should hold the brake pedal after disconnecting the negative battery terminal to completely drain the charge in the electrical system. Also mentioned, if you plan on opening/closing the doors during the work, you should lower the windows slightly before disconnecting the cable.

When you go back to reinstall the battery cable, you will need to do a window reset procedure (I recommend you search the forum for directions - I don't know them).
The window reset process is:
1. Roll down window all the way.

2. Roll up window all the way, but hold the switch in the "up" position and continue to hold it for 5 seconds after the window is all the way up.

3. Repeat process for the other window.

4. Deliver Reps to Mr. onzedge™ and Mr. JARBlue™.

5. Have a great day.

That would be three seconds according to the OM. Wouldn't want the younger crowd in here to waste an extra 2 seconds when they don't need to in their busy lives.

"Corrosion Control Module". I can't fit one of those on my engine because my Fuel Ionizing Hydrogen Generator is in the way. I'm reluctant to disconnect it because I'm sure that any day now it will kick in and I'll start getting the 73 MPG that the advertisments gauranteed.
