Hello James and Welcome to the Do It Yourself Web Site and my Gas Appliances topic.

As the header indicates, more info requested.

What goes out exactly?

Does the electrical fuse blow only when the oven is used?

Or does the appliance blow a fuse without using oven?

Is the appliance brand new? As in just purchased?

Or new to you but a used appliance?

Read the manufacturers plate or label. Possible the current draw is more than the electrical boxe fuses rating.

Not encoutered a problem like this in 20+ years of appliance service.

Need a lot more details and specific information.

Retail parts dealers and appliances parts stores can also help determine what the possible problem may be based upon that specific brand and model. Bring the make, model and serial numbers. Dealers and appliances parts stores are listed in the phone book.
