Buslady,

A tingling feeling indicates an electrical short. UNPLUG the machine as you need to find this short before using the machine again. Turning the plug around does not eliminate the short. Electricity is still leaking. This can be very dangerous. Your dry intact skin is a good insulator, but if there is a break in your skin, you could be in real danger.

DH thinks it is a grounding problem, does anyone here have any ideas? The cord is in good shape, but does not have the grounding point on it. I love the machine, but it scares me!!! Please help!!
