I didnt when I put mine in ages ago. Not a bad idea though to disconnect the battery while working with it.

Anytime your dealing with electrical parts on a car you should always disconnect the battery. Better safe than sorry !

If you don't want to disconnect the battery, just pull the PCM/BAT fuse.
