My 9 year old Zanussi double oven had started to trip out the cooker RCD on my consumer unit. Deffo the oven as I checked the cooker isolation switch & hob.

Only problem I ever had with it before was when the fan assisted ovens heater element broke & I had to replace it. It's been working fine and now suddenly this.

It's tripping the RCD every time I even turn the cooker isolation switch on without either of the 2 ovens switched on! :eek:

Any help or ideas appreciated before I go out and stump for a new one :mad:
