    Hi folks,

    As I type this, it has just started snowing gently here in my part of Canada.

    My 360 is parked indoors with the CTEK plugged in and attached to the battery. However, I will be doing some work on the car this winter and will be turning the battery off. After the work is complete should I turn the battery back on or just leave it turned off until spring when I'm ready to start and drive the car again...could be 5 months? By time the work is done it will be too cold here to start the car and I certainly couldn't drive it to do the ECU relearning. So is it best to leave everything dormant or to supply power to whatever draws power when the ignition is off?

    Thanks for your input.

    Bill

    Considering you already turned it off ..my thought would be keep it off but keep a charger on it (battery)
