Pull SMG relay or not?

Purchased the E85 about a month ago and was thinking about winter storage, I plan on leaving a battery tender on but was thinking that maybe I should pull the SMG pump relay ... I think it cycles to maintain pressure even when the ignition is off but am not sure. Thanks

No it only primes when you unlock the car with your key.
I’d leave the relay well alone

I am not so sure about that ... I just went out into my garage and just opened the garage door and all of a sudden I heard the pump run??

It shouldn’t

My SMG has been in storage best part of 3 years at this point and I didn’t pull the relay, no issues at all. 1x trickle charger and that’s it.

I just don't want it to run at all while in storage, I would imagine the trickle charger keeps the battery charges but the pump could still turn on and off - I was hoping that it wouldn't but when I heard it run for about 4 seconds yesterday in the garage I am not sure now. I will probably pull the relay just to be sure. Thanks
