I have driven a daily driver FI Bus since 93 and have always charged it with
the battery connected AND jump started it, which is a no no according to the
Late John Muir. I have never had a problem.Maybe I'm just lucky. I am in no way
stating I am a VW mechanic but I did stay in a Westfalia the other night...

I don't want to guarantee that a solar charger will not damage your
computer, but if it were my bus I would have absolutely no qualms
about it, even if it were a higher-power charger. I have charged
many batteries while installed in vehicles with computers and have
never had a problem.

It says in my manual to
disconnect the battery before
charging or it will fry the Fuel
Injection computer or something.
Does anybody know if that would
be true even with a tiny solar
trickle charger?
