My oven is popping the circuit but the convection and broiler do not... Why?

Question

I have a 3 year old Thermador oven that has broil/oven/convection oven combination. All of a sudden, the oven pops the circuit but the convection or broiler does not, any clues? I am handy so do not answer with, "You should not be messing around in there". Thanks!!

Answer 1

the oven switch turns both the broiler and convection elements therefore it requires more amperage through the circuit...

Answer 2

Sounds like a bad heating element in the oven. Some stoves use the same element for the broiler and the oven, if thats true in your case try swaping them. Look up your model number on the thermador web site and see if its the same part number, if you dont have the original papers that came with it.
