Yes, the battery must be disconnected on a 2018 Ford Explorer before flat-towing per the owner's manual. That said, the automatic battery disconnect device we offer will not work on this vehicle so for convenience you'll want to switch to a quick-attach style connection, the Deka Lead Quick-Disconnect Battery Terminal part # DW05312 is my strong recommendation.
