The Bulletin doesn't recommend just turning the unit off, it recommends making it inert. Big difference.
To make it truly inert would require it to be disconnected from any other aircraft systems and the battery to be removed. As access is the problem with this device, wouldn't it be easier to remove it altogether once it was 'exposed'?
