Is it safe to hook the battery up in this state? Assuming it is not, how much of a pain is it to unhook the top from the power mechanism and then hook it back up later when everything is in service position? Or is there some trick to hooking it all back up?

My parking brake sensor failed a few months back and I was forced to convert to manual mode for a few weeks. I didn’t have much of a problem getting it all hooked back up, just a bit of trial and error moving the mechanism back and forth to get it to line up with the ball joints.
Seems like lower risk to just disconnect it and move manually than reconnect the battery.
