I have a gas stove that blows a fuse whenever I turn on the oven. It just started doing this yesterday. ?

Question

We have lived here for 5 years. No remodeling or anything done recently that would have played a part in it. Any advice is welcome, thanks

Answer 1

you need to look at what feature on a gas stove is drawing current

Answer 2

If your gas stove has electronic ignition ( as opposed to pilot lights) it could be that the ignition system got wet either through cleaning or a pot boiling over. It should stop when the water evaporates.

Answer 3

is the oven the only appliance plugged in to this circuit? also do you still have fuses? or do you mean breakers. maybe the oven has melted some insulation off a wire, causing it to short. i have never seen this happen, but anything is possible
