Probably due to the build up of static electricity. Find a way to ground your pad. Perhaps run leads from the pads into a barrier strip, and then have a common ground tied to the screw in your wall outlet. Also might be loose wires or wires shorting out. Check them over and use some electrical tape if necessary to cover any possible shorts. Check your connections on the PS pad just in case some solder connection has broken off. If the pad is sending in ghost steps even when you have disconnected the panel then you most likely have done the worse case; maybe the PS pad circuitry is fried.
