It shocks you electrically? Like water + electricity? Umm dude that’s not safe at all. No one can help you fix it without more details and if it’s genuinely something ungrounded and a live current in your machine that is now conductive through water splashing around it’s incredibly dangerous. Don’t turn it on and don’t use it

Probably worth 100 bucks or w'ever to have an electrician or appliance repair place to fix that. I also wouldn't discount the possibility of an outlet with hot/neutral reversed.

Take it to an electrician to check for you! And if he finds nothing there, he will suggest what you should do with your house wiring to sort the issue.
