[QUOTE="George Lisle, post: 521494, member: 34393"] Hi, my AEG BP3003001M wall oven, six years old, has started to trip the rcd every time it is turned off, but only when the upper element is hot. I have checked the terminal connections at the back and tightened them up, but this has not cured the problem. I am loth to replace the element on the assumption that it is faulty or to call in a service engineer in case it is the circuit board that may need replacing, in which case it might be better value to buy a new oven. It is a curious fault and difficult to understand why it is not tripping anyway when it heats up, only on turning it off, whether with the control knob or the main isolator. The rcd is shared with freezer, fridge, socket outlets, dishwasher and under cupboard lighting, but it seems to make no difference whether any of these are in use or not. Anyone have any ideas?
