If you have 7.8 firmware on the pump and front board your good. Its was not so much a static issue, but lost packets of info in the buss system would very randomly cause a shut down from the ECU not seeing the pump. That being said that was an issue 3 or more years ago. 7.8 is some of the latest. It never hurts to send it in and get it updated as JC is constantly improving the RX and RXI firmware and software. Its not just the ECU and pump, the front board on the motor needs flashing as well.
