Electric Shock From Blast City?

Post by moh »

Hey guys.. This metal part on my blast city shocks me every time i touch it! Could this be a possible grounding issue? Any help? :(

Are you rubbing it with your wet penis again? I thought I told you to cut out those shenanigans!

Yeah it's not grounded if you're getting shocked by it. You'll need to run a jumper wire from another grounded point to that plate. There should be a screw on that plate you can land your ground on.

Quite aside from that I think it might be worth considering why that panel has a charge on it....

Both leave me feeling like less of a man. I'd say it's a toss up.
