Maybe a stupid electrical question...
When i follow some tech-articles, i need to disconnect the battery, because of disconnecting some electrical stuff or whatever...
Is there an alternative for disconnection the battery? maybe to pull a fuse?

Depending on what you are doing, taking a minute of time to disconnect the negative battery cable can potentially save your hundreds of dollars :) For instance, a new PCM should you fry that can cost you $150 plus dealer costs for a reflash, if you have an older car the cost is about the same for the parts. Not to mention lost time behind the wheel :)
