Default Shocking discovery.

The other day while riding barefoot in my cart my left foot was on the metal edge on the floor and when I went to use the turn signals (metal) I got a mild shock, I never noticed it before because I usually have shoes on. I have an 02 EZGO Freedom TXT, Im pretty sure Western Golf Carts added headlights, turn signals, mirrors and seat belts from what I have been told by the others in the forum. Anyone have any idea on how to fix it or where to look. Thanks!!

Some blinker units use a frame ground, this coupled with wet battery tops and frames will cause a mild shock, run a separate ground wire to the blinker unit if needed and clean the battery tops and trays if needed.
