As always, Paul's Knight Rider Archive gives us some insight with the script:

It doesn't come across very well on-screen.
BONNIE
Kitt, I hope you're not picking up his warped sense of humor
K.I.T.T.
I'm trying my best not to.
Bonnie sits in the driver's seat.
BONNIE
Good.
Suddenly she jumps a little like she's been pinched on the bottom.
BONNIE
Kitt! Try a little harder.
ANGLE - K.I.T.T.'S SCANNER
He flashes it devilishly.
Here's a low-quality clip of the scene. 448k QuickTime.

Guys,
What happened was, Bonnie said she couldn't go out with Michael because she was spending the night with KITT, switching it to hydrogen fuel, purging its systems, charging batteries etc. Michael said Purging systems? KITT, don't let her take advantage of you. Then Knight leaves, and Bonnie tells KITT not to pick up his warped sense of humor, he says I'll try not to, she does something, reacts, then says Try Harder.
Clearly, Bonnie had a circuit board open, and the computer redirected power so as to intentionally shock her. Somewhat like we used to do on submarines, he he. Just kidding, we would never play with that kind of amperage.
Note that it is against the SSORM to intentionally give or recieve an electric shock.
Also note that the SSORM says nothing about gambling.
(seriously: even if it doesn't pass through your heart directly, it is still possible to die from even a mild shock. it has happened before. Very small amperage can kill you. That's why you're supposed to report to medical if you get shocked in the USN. So as a former submarine sonar tech, I have to note, don't try this at home kids.)

To me it seems out of character for KITT, but that made it all the more funny.
Oh, and once when I was younger we had this huge old fan set up in my garage. Somehow I ended up touching it (I think on a dare...it had been known to bite back before), and it sent a huge surge through my body that felt...gooey. To my knowledge the fan had no ulterior motive, but I've been suspicious of the things ever since. Stupid fans.
(sorry for going off on a tangent like that...seeker's post brought back the memory.
