Wires Touching and shorting-

My PAF Equipped Tele is wired fine and works fine BUT When the panel is screwed down the Metal Ground from the Bucker touches anything else and it all just cuts out.

I guess the only thing to do is to wrap some material around the Ground?
But what should I use?

I had the same problem with my Fralin P90 with braided wire. After attaching some tape it works.
Do you happen to have any pics of your new Tele ?....I'm curious 8)
