Hello everybody,

As I don't use the GC for now, and as I cannot charge the battery outside of my house, I wondered if it was a good idea to disconnect the leisure battery so it is not discharging during that time ?
Anyone of you do that ?

thanks !
Alex

Yep just turn off the main isolator switch in the electrical cupboard. I always do this when ours is in storage..

Is it the big red switch ?
No problem when you switch it back after a few weeks ? Some cars dont like to switch on/off the battery and then problems occur such as messages on the dashboard, functionalities not working anymore, etc. But maybe the Grand California was better designed in that aera...

It’s fine to leave off. It’s just an isolator switch. It doesn’t disconnect everything from the leisure battery but the majority of the consumers will be isolated.
