Static shocked, anyone got it?
« on: December 09, 2010, 02:59:03 PM »
I am wondering if anyone is facing this issue. Each time I am out of car, while trying to close the door, I will get the static from it.

Earlier on when I open the door, attempt to let the door touch the other car's, I thought I will not get it. I tried to close the door using the top corner near the rubber side to push but I still got it.

This does not happen on the right side of the door but on left as well. To think my wife also gotten it before.

I didn't mod the car, everything suppose to be very smooth. It is only recently that I got the static. During that period of time, I didn't even do anything to the car.

So far I didn't experience this on my ride or on my previous rides, as I installed grounding cables on them. But experienced static shock on my boss Slyphy numerous times. My boss Slyphy is totally stock with no grounding whatsoever. So perhaps install cable grounding might indeed work.
