I have a Creda Europa solar plus. I has a bottom oven and top grill.
The Oven started tripping the RCD intermittently about 8 months ago. Therefore under advice I changed the heating element and this cured the problem.

Then about 2 weeks ago the intermittent tripping of the RCD restarted. Although before the RCD would trip at anytime the oven was heating now it only trips when the oven door is opened while the oven is heating or up to temperature. Again this is intermittent. I have replaced the micro switch for the oven door which controls the fan. I thought this maybe causiing an electrical short when the switch is put in the open state.

Again I thought this had solved the problem but after a couple of days the RCD tripped again. I have checked hard wired socket and all looks fine.
Does the heating element need replacing again or do I just bite the bullet and get a new oven. Or are there some other forces at work. Comments and ideas appreciated.

Tony,

I know it's an old forum, but my Creda Europa Solarplus Double Oven is also intermittely tripping the RCD, and only when the Main oven door is opened!

Did you ever solve your problem? Very interested to hear if you did and any advice how to cure would be appreciated!
