You shouldn't get shocked if all the electrics are turned off before you disconnect. Just don't do anything daft thats gonna short circuit the terminal like dropping a spanner

isnt there a fuse to the ECU?? surely removing that would drain the backup!

mines doing exactly the same.
Took it in today, they said it was the k&n causing it. As the fault was the air mass meter.
I'm not convienced as the k&n has been on for about two years, gonna put the standard air filter back on tommorrrow
