Static shocked my controller

[skykid]

I'm not sure if its static thats caused it.

Mine is a bit screwed after all its over 4 year old, and for some reason like say for a racing game, if i crash the camera changes its view, and pro evo soccer sametimes if i pause the game, the d-pad goes crazy, and endlessly scrolls throught the options, oh and once it kept on vibrating even in the PS2 browser, but i fixed that by opening it and fiddling around.

Oh and the same pad has PRO EVO Syndrome, where the R1 button gets stuck in the pads casing because its held down so much, as its for the dash button.

If you ask me its down to general wear and tear in my case....theve been dropped on wood flooring aswell, which is why i have 5 pads.

Well I was just playing it a few minutes before it shocked and the controller was fine. I turned off the system and then decided I would play a bit more. The static shock went thru the small gap around the edges of the start button as that's where my finger was when I picked it up. Fairly direct zap to the internals of the controller.
