My oven which has not been used for 5 years tripped the breaker when I started using it. Watched 3 videos including this one. Did exactly this except I didn't step the temperature up. I straight away put the temp at max, turned on the convection fan and rotisserie motor and left it on for 30 minutes. The oven worked without problem after that.
After cleaning my Bosch oven it started tripping. I followed these steps exactly as explained in this video and it miraculously started working again. Thank you for sharing this very useful video. It saved me time, frustration and some unnecessary technician costs. Thanks!!!
I'm glad it helped! This video is saving thousands of dollars a day!
After a long day of serious troubleshooting, I found your video. My oven was new, but had set in a garage for a couple of years. This method worked!!!! Thank you very much!!!!
I'm happy I could help!
I had this problem many years ago when the oven was newly installed and hardly used. When the temperature is set too high, it will trip each time after running for about 5 to 10 mins. Because the trip do not take place immediately, one may try using your method of driving out moisture without disconnecting the ground wire. Simply set the temperature very low at start, eg 50°C or at a point which does not trip for longer than 30mins. Run it longer at each interval of say 30mins to 45mins. Then bump up by 25°C each time until it goes to max °C. I suspect it may still work if you just max at 100°C or slightly higer (above boiling point of water) The whole process will take longer but its safer. This can work only if the oven do not trip immediately after turning on. Did this before. It worked for me. Oven running good since then.
Just tried richardchee2454's method because my oven tripped out within 2 min after not using it for 12 months. Started with 50 degrees C on Fan Forced setting and gradually raised temp by 25 degrees C successfully every half hour for 2 hours without tripping. Stopped at 200 degrees C. So far, so good. Thanks.
Way to copy exactly what he did in video basically and claim it as your own. Sad, and guy that tried, 'his Richards method' fyi it wasn't his method and he stole it from the video uploader. Give credit where credit is due and don't try and steal it from other people who deserve it while you don't. Infact you deserve a swift kick to the temple for being such a grumpy individual.
Thanks, just did Richardchee method. It worked first time.
I am starting this process now on a Miele Combo Oven. Did you just have to do it the once ?
@@donalgalvin5838 Yes. Once only. I did it once many years back. And the oven still functioning well without any electrical tripping since. Hope you have success with yours.
Life saver ! I fixed my oven. Thank you ! In my case I very aggressively tried to clean the oven with some cleaning foam. Never put foam around contact points !
Thanks for your video, just repaired my daughter's oven which has been tripping, following your process. It really works and now the oven is operating fine NO TRIPPING! TQVM
Glad it worked!
Hello Buddy, Thanks a million for making this wonderful video. My Turbo Incanto oven had developed the same issue and it is working perfectly fine again after I applied your method this afternoon after watching your video last night. Really appreciated. I also really liked the emphasis on safety precautions. Well done!!!
Glad I can help! Do recommend my channel to anyone who needs help!
Brilliant video and was the exact problem with our double oven.. You were the only guy suggesting this, everyone else talks about changing elements !!
Nice one.. Thank you
Most welcome! Just follow the warnings carefully and you should be all good
@@ThePunggolHandyMan already fixed it.. Yes, must be careful when unit is live 😉😁
You are the best! Saved me $160 (if that is the repair cost in 2024).
My oven used a 3 pin plug instead of a wall mount switch. It makes it a lot easier for me, just remove the earth wire from the 3 pin plug and taped the earth wire outside the plug with electrical tape. So I skipped removing the oven step.
SAFETY FIRST! ALWAYS.
I tried heating up on 1st day, even though I able to heat up to MAX at 15min intervals, it still tripped.
Realised that I only heat up the top element + fan only. Decided to try again with bottom element the next day.
Tried again next day with both element + fan at 50C/15min interval until MAX.
Then fix back earth wire and it works! My observation is the bottom element is the culprit with moisture. Heating only top element does not remove moisture on bottom element. Next time will heat the bottom first.
That's right don't give up! I'm very proud of you!
How to remove the earth wire from the plug and how to fix it again?
Can u please explain in detail ?
I too have this 3 pin plug and I don't have any idea
Thank you brother....i just followed your instructions......and miracle happens.....its working again... thanks you so much...you make my wife laughing out loud again....
Haha I'm so glad it works! Saving the marriage! Happy wife happy life!
Dear Sir,
Thank you for your informative video and for emphasizing the safety precautions.
I followed your detailed instructions, and my oven is now working again!
You have saved me both time and money by helping me avoid the need for a replacement or a technician.
My sincere thanks to you. 🙏

Hello I just tried this method and instructions and it works!
We moved into a new place and had a built in Bosch over. It trips after 5 minutes.
Also this place was empty for 6 months.
Applied the method and instructions and now the oven works well!
We almost listen to people and replace a heat sensor and all.
Thank you.
I was just looking for videos to understand more and came across this. Have to say was about skeptical at the beginning because of different brand but works well!
Thank you !
Proud of you! Feels good to have fixed something!
Superb and thankyou.
I put my oven through the self clean cycle. This means it fills up with steam, which obviously got into the internals.
Step by step, and sorted. Cheers.
Awesome! How does it feel to LEVEL UP!
@@ThePunggolHandyMan Dunno what "level up" means pal, but its good to fix something without having to pay. Many thanks.
Level up means your skills went up a level in proficiency you now have more skills!
Worked on our oven! Thank you for this video. Must try! But please be very careful, put warning signs and barricades if possible
Thanks bro. It works. Now my wife is a happy person.
Saving Marriages one oven at a time
Thank you so much for this video. I managed to heat up slowly from 100 - 250 degree. No more tripping.
if its not for of my oven tripping i wouldn't have come across your awesome channel
Thanks for your support! So stay tuned for more videos!
For anyone attempting to fix a tripping fault with your oven, please don’t do what this guy has done. Never ever disconnect a protective conductors and switch the power back on. Hire a proper electrician who will have the right equipment to diagnose the issue without putting yourself or your family in danger.
He clearly putting warning sign and alerted the audiences in the video.
Another success following the instructions on the video, many thanks
Haha which other video did you follow?
Thank you so much for showing us so clearly how to do it safely.
You are most welcome! Remember to be safe if attempting this!
Hello, I just stumbled on your video and your expository explanation has hooked me to subscribe. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you for your comments and your support!
Woooow!!!
Big up teacher!!
I had despaired of mine.
Just after trying your method it's now working perfect.
For the first time I'm baking my son's birthday cake right now.
Thank you so very much indeed.👍
Most welcome! Good job! Now you can be a handyman too!
This is an absolutely brilliant video. Great explanation and clear instructions on the steps required to resolve the issue. Definitely subscribing and looking forward to your next handyman video!
Thank you for the vote of confidence! People like you keep me motivated to make more content!
This is a very good video. Clear and to the point. Thanks mate.
Glad you liked it! Remember to be safe when attempting this
I love this bro, keep up the good work.
Watched from Namibia 🇳🇦
Wow you're watching my content from Namibia? Hello from Singapore 🇸🇬 !
Thank you so much brother! I followed your steps exactly and now my oven is saved for baking Raya cookies!
That's great! So happy it worked for u
Saved my Wolf countertop oven! Still trying to understand the logic behind it, but thank you!!!
Glad it helped!
Thanks im going to try this on my toaster oven, fingers crossed
Err .. I would be careful... your toaster may be fried
When you say in the video that the oven is tripping, is that all of the power or just the fan as the fan in mine just keeps tripping and restarting when i turn it on
thanks for this helpful video!
Followed the steps to try fixing my Smeg oven, the first time round oven tripped again after I re-earthed it, only then I realised it was on "eco" mode. Oops! Did it a second time with "fan assist" mode and now it's ok.
Helped a friend try to fix their Bosch oven - learnt from my previous lesson and made sure I set to "fan mode", however, the oven tripped again after re-earthing. My guess is that Bosch's "fan mode" for this particular model only uses a heating element at the fan, and so it didn't remove moisture from the upper/lower main coils. May have to try again! Wondering if its common that some oven models have "fan mode" that don't make use of the main coils?
Hi you wanna turn on all the could to ensure enough drying. But having said that, I've seen 75% success with this method
This problem also happens with bread makers.
@@FixTechStuff really do tell me more!
@@ThePunggolHandyMan I've come across it twice, usually the breadmaker is left unused for a long period and the element absorbs moisture.
Most people would throw it out, but using your method it's an easy fix.
The first one I did was on a circuit without an earth leakage breaker. The 2nd one I just kept selecting bake and resetting the breaker till it worked. :)
My stove only has a plug in outlet to the wall it doesn't have those extra wires.
@@yolodolo9143 the wires are in the plug, you have to open the plug to access the ground
How to remove the earth wire from the plug and how to fix it again?
Can u please explain in detail ?
I have this 3 pin plug and I don't have any idea
Professionals dont dry it out for you. They replace the element. we dont wanna face the same customer a few times making customer think we are doing trial and error work.
Saved an oven. See if I can save another one.
Thanks. This method worked for me..
Good job!
Thanks for the video...
Risky, but worth it if needs must!
Hi thks for your video my Brandt works if earth disconnected. otherwise it trips.. if no earth no live ..tried gradually warm up but problem persists..any idea what cud b the solution? dangerous if no earth connected? tia
Solved my problem, thank you!
works like a charm !!!!
Hello, my beko maxi led display oven turns off by itself. The oven is working but the maxi LED is not. What could I do?
Hi, does this method also for RCD trip problem? I have Teka oven + microwave that almost never used. When I switch to microwave mode, i could normally used it but when switch to oven mode it instantly trip the RCD
what about using hair dryer to dry it? will that works?
@@cheehotan-i4n lol no the coil is internal
If no heating ... what happen of it !?
Can teach ?
Might be anything! This needs a bit more analysis
Hi Brother , Tank you so much times . Could you please tell me what is the Gadget you use to check electricity on oven surface ?
That is a Contactless Voltage Detector! Link in the description !
@@ThePunggolHandyMan - Thank you
Hi, I have a brand new electric oven installed. (Hardwired) probably been sat in a warehouse for few years, however sealed in manufactures box. Turned it on for first time and it tripped all house. Keeps tripping now everytime. Any tips to what it might be
Hi, I tried the method shown in this video and it works fine when the ground wire disconnected. However after connecting the ground wire again, the oven trips the circuit breaker. Any clues what can be the problem or the solution ? Thanks in advance.
The real question is, why should this be a common problem? Ovens are known to be installed internationally, US, Europe or elsewhere. Is it due to the Asian practice of installing the hot stove over the oven that somehow resulted in condensation of water droplets on the inner metallic surface of the oven, where the wiring is located?
Not really. I think it has to do with our climate
Great content man seriously
Thank you for your support! Great to see everyone enjoying my content
He bro, I have air fryer/oven and when it gets hot the vents of the fan inside expand and it lifts up causing it to stop the fan...so is it safe to connect the vents to the heating element with a copper wire in order to stop it from hitting the fan?
When you say moisture in the coils, you mean within the heating elements? Surely this would read as closed circuit when testing the element contacts and earth?
Sometimes it doesn't show. But when current is strong enough there will be a momentary arc causing the rccb to trip
Good advice thanks
Glad it helped!
How about those with digital selection knobs where the power has to be on before you can select the temperature? My Mayer has to be on before I can set the settings.
Use a wooden rod to poke it
Thank you very much sr
Most welcome
My storage water heater tripped the circuit breaker similar to this oven, can I solve the problem by this technique?
Lol no! This is a dangerous situation. Please don't use the heater. Removing the ground from a water heater is a fatal mistake
Why will the casing be live when you remove the earth wire?
Thank you for your question!
Usually this is indicative that the coil which is live has shorted to the case which is grounded. The RCCB detects the current from the case through the ground wire resulting in the DB trip which protects the user from an electric shock. Hence removing the ground removes the safety and the case becomes live since it is shorted.
@@ThePunggolHandyMan In your video, even after heating up the oven to max, the case was still ‘live’. Does this mean, even after drying the coils, it is still shorted to ground but just not as much for it to be detected by the RCCB?
I’m going to try leaving the oven on and seeing how that works. How long would you recommend leaving it on for on the highest setting?
Well usually I just leave it for 15 mins at the highest setting. Mine goes to 480G/250C which is more than enough to sizzle the water out of the insulation
@@ThePunggolHandyMan that's perfect! I was thinking an hour or more 😆😆😆
@@ThePunggolHandyMan should I leave the door closed when I do?
Close the door. You want the oven to rise in temperature
@@ThePunggolHandyMan thank you!
Don't touch the oven, yes, but what are the chances the oven housing is making contact with some other appliance? Is there a chance it could be somehow shorted to a nearby sink, plumbing, etc? I know it likely shouldn't but there are some dodgy installers out there.
Tha k you for your comment! The reason I made this video is to show how it can be done safely, as there are worse videos which do not highlight the dangers of attempting this procedure. There are countless what ifs and I can't possibly cover everything in a short you tube video. As always, use your good judgement and always be safe
If in doubt, get a pro.
Hello, my oven has a normal electric plug (three pins) how can I isolate the ground and keep the oven live as you did ?
Thank you !
Well you open up
The plug n remove the ground
Thank you.....👍👍👍👍👍
Did it work?
5 mins ago my cooker tripped all my stuff I flipped the switches and all was good except the cooker which tripped them all again when I switched it on its been fine for past 3 yrs no clue how I can't cook Xmas dinner 😭
Well it's protecting you from electrocution! Hurry call a handyman or buy a new one!
And after this procedure, did the current leakage to the case stop? This is interesting :)
Yes of course!
Thanks!
Thank you so much!
Hi I just got new oven and after 15 minutes the heat goes off then I turn up heat it goes back on then after 2 minutes off again do you have idea what problem is
Might be a thermostat issue
where can I find a professional to fix my oven?
Just a month ago, I got an electrician to fix the oven tripping. He rewired the oven and it’s working now.
Im wondering if the rewiring will cause electrical hazard?
I'm sure he did it professionally.
i tried. it's work! thanks!
You're welcome!
Pls, I would like you to clear my doubt on another oven issue. I just bought a 3 chamber oven for bakery project. Everything looks good but each chamber has a small hole in the rear side. I would like to know if these holes will pose a problem in my baking process . If yes, what will you suggest I should do to solve this issue before I actually start using the oven? Most of the deck ovens i have come across don’t have such holes. I am afraid to have heat leakage . Thanks for your helpful reply
Hi well I'm not sure about individual ovens 😅 I'm sure the designer of these products have put in a lot of thought into the design including the small holes which may have a purpose in temperature regulation, ventilation or airflow.
My reccomendation would be to check with the manufacturer😀
Thanks so much.
Why disconnect the ground wire . What’s the theory ?
Well if there is a short to the case, there would be current flowing through the ground. The RCCB detects the difference in current and trips, as this is a condition which indicates a fault. By removing ground, the RCCB will not detect this difference in the ground wire and won't trip. This enables you to run the heating / drying cycle in the oven
My oven tripped once I operated it and the microwave oven at the same time. Since then the breakers tripped when I switch on the oven. Could you please tell me if this method work for my oven?
Microwave oven is not the same as convection oven so I don't think it will work. You might need a replacement
Will this method work if my oven trips ground fuse after 15 minutes of being on
you can try. works 70% of the time
I have the same problem after pouring boiling water in the trader below. Is it Okay to leave the door open and let it dry by itself.
Usually a short means it is faulty. Pouring water may have damaged your oven
Hi, love your videos, keep it up bro.. anyway wanna ask, if it still trips eventhough we had disconnected the gnd, whats the next step?
Does it trip even when ground is disconnected? Or after doing this procedure
@@ThePunggolHandyMan Did what you advised, my oven now up and baking.. thanks bro..
Glad it helped! Wishing your oven many more years of delicious baking!
well said info, BTW where to purchase the sensor tester
Hi you can use a regular test pen like the screwdriver kind. Or u can purchase this at your local hardware store. Some do carry the contact less voltage detector.
bro, my oven still trips after following your procedures. However I left it over night to cool down before rewiring the ground wire. Whats the next course of action?
Then your oven has served its last days.. sorry but gotta get a new one
Worthy my subscribe
That's awesome ! Thank you so much for the vote of confidence!
what's the voltage of the casing when doing this method?
It varys depending on the fault. But i don't have the number off hand
Why would the casing become live when ground is disconnected? Equal potential? Or because of the leakage current thats in oven?
the case goes live, but the connection to earth causes it to trip after a few microseconds. Disconnect the earth wire stops this happening. He's overriden the safety to get the oven to dry itself out@@akes4995
Is it okay, if I don't have a contactless test pen? I have the normal ones.
Yes it's fine. Just poke all surfaces before u touch them
@@ThePunggolHandyMan thanks for sharing this video. I followed it and my oven works now!
That's great! Leave a like and Subscribe! Hopefully u find the channel helpful!
Hi bro, i tried your method but it’s still trip after like 10 secs. May i know if there is any other ways? ;)
May be a different problem that is a
Causing it.. might need a pro
Thank you so much for the video. We followed your method and recommended timing for each temperature. It worked well immediately for at least 15mins at various temperature (180-210), after ground wire was reconnected. We turned off the oven and took an hour break. After the break, we turned on the oven at 180 deg c. at fan (3D hot air) position. However it tripped after 5mins. I’m wondering what might be the problem and if we should re try the process. Do you have any recommendations for this situation? Thanks in advance.
Yes please re try the process and give ample time for the dry out. However if it still does not work then you gotta call a repair man
Is not moisture. Is the oil accumulated at heater area. After not using for sometime. It get accumulated.
Always, clean up (including the heater element)when not in use.
Also in this video, installation is clearly not compliance with safety requirement.
I don't recommend this. Too many things can go wrong and it's not a hundred percent fix. Going by Murphy's law, eventually someone will be killed. Sometimes it's the terminals having problem.
Very risky because it's connected by hard wiring and i suggest using wago which should be a lot easier to handle.
What we used to do was DISCONNECT MAIN POWER. Disconnect heating elements and check if the heating element is the issue. You can also measure the resistance from the heating element and use P=VI to know if the numbers are reasonable. We will usually buy a new part to have a more guaranteed fix or some DIYer will bake the heating element in another oven.
Even so, still very risky, because if the amateur, ignorant or inexperience user forgot to disconnect the main power, it could still mean death.
Best advice is not buy such a large oven that has to be hardwired unnecessary, and switch the oven on occasionally to expel the moisture
Hi! Thanks for rhe feedback! The purpose of this video is to highlight the risks with attempting this procedure as there are may videos online which show how to do it but do not demonstrate the danger. So I'm providing info that should someone want to DIY this, they should be aware of the risks involved
Christ, they used tape.. terrible
Yea I know right
was it so necessary to make your video with a nappy on your face??
Well this video was shot at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. And it was government regulations to wear a mask in a client's home. As most of my videos are shot in real settings I don't want this to be Exhibit -A when I'm charged for breaking the law.
Can i get ur no.

Sigh.. the number of times I explained
Hi Sir
Can i use a industrial hot air gun to blow at the heating coils till they are red hot color then try on the power back on again?
Err I don't think that will work
