My suggestion would be to always cut it, but keep it available to reconnect for diagnostic purposes. T4 will be aware of the FBH, if one has ever been connected and pause its diagnostics, if the FBH doesn't respond.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
