 You're wondering if discharging the static electricity would fix the issue? 😄

In many cases, yes, discharging the static electricity can help resolve the problem. Static electricity can cause a range of issues, from annoying buzzes and crackles to actual electrical failures.

Discharging the static electricity is often as simple as:

1. Touching a grounded metal object (like a door handle or a tap) to ground yourself.
2. Letting go of any objects you're holding to release the static charge.
3. Taking a few seconds to ensure you're not carrying any excess static electricity.

If the issue persists after discharging, it might be worth investigating other potential causes, such as:

* Faulty or worn-out components
* Poor connections or loose wires
* Incorrect voltage or power supply

However, if you've ruled out these possibilities and the problem still occurs, it's possible that there's an underlying issue with your equipment or setup. In that case, it may be worth consulting a professional or seeking further troubleshooting assistance. 🤔
