Wii U Gamepad loses signal less than one foot away

I placed my gamepad in the charger and as I did, I  got a atatic electricity shock.  I looked on the screen and it went black, with a white line across the screen.  The menu screen came back up and I can play my games, but only if I am right next to the console.  I take one step backwards, and nothing, in less than ten seconds I get the screen saying that all communication is lost.  I've had the system since Christmas and it has worked perfectly, even to the point where I play the gamepad in bed in the room upstairs from the console.  I'd hate to think that the shock had something to do with it, but all signs point to that being what happened.  I have tried all troubleshooting up to, but not including, removing the battery,  Before I do that, will it help?  This really stinks, but there is a serious issue here.  I literally have to be standing within one foot of the console for the gamepad to work.
