So for everyone's benefit, after unsuccessfully searching diligently to locate my chassis battery disconnect, I contacted the good folks at Freightliner who stated that the battery disconnect was an option that the manufacturer did not take on my unit. Knowing that at least one 2003 DS and one 2005 KS have them, I don't know if it is model specific (3353) or year specific (2004) that the option was not taken.
In the meantime, after fully charging house and chassis, I have disconnected both sets of batteries until I next use the coach. A battery disconnect switch is on order for the house side, as it will be an easy mod to the single negative (although that is not what this post was about). The chassis side has two grounds and is thus a little more complicated, so until I get tired of it, I'll just remove the negative cables each time the unit goes into storage for a while.
Thanks everyone for the help.
