Default Gas Oven trips the GFCI breaker.
Model Number: XL 44 (gas oven)   Brand: GE   Age: 1 - 5 years   

Whenever I turn on my GE XL-44 gas oven, the oven ignites and starts to heat up. After about one minute, the GFCI circuit breaker that powers the outlet that the oven is plugged into trips. This causes the oven to turn off. The GFCI trips again almost immediately if it is reset. I have isolated the GFCI and found that it is the oven and not some other appliance that trips the breaker. I have replaced the GFCI breaker. Still it doesn't work right. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening and what to do about it?

Thanks,
Mark
