    HELP!!! Get Electric-Shock when touch the CO2 cylinder and Regulator

    I just did a check by use of soap bubble on those connection of my CO2 set due to CO2 running fast last night. I believe that some soap may have get into the solenoid and I will get quite strong electric-shock when touching the CO2 cylinder and the whole Regulator including the tuning knot after switch-on the power supply for the solenoid.
    Are there any brothers or sisters had experience it and able to give me some advices or solutions to get this problem solve? Thanks.

    before the soap check, did you ever experience any electric shock?
    if no, leave your solenoid operating normally for a few days. the solenoid will dry itself from the heat generated. if the problem still persist, bring it to a lfs for checking.

    Thanks for the reply, problem already solve. I just need to unscrew and separate the solenoid(with 3 pin)only and put it into a dry box or uncook rice container for a day to dry it. Place back and screw back, problem solve.
