2 choices element to earth or switch contact welded.still stand by element unless it is wired up incorrectly?

it was stored but dont know for how long couple of weeks we were told

we had a sparky test the socket and he put a test on cooker and said it seems to have a reading of power on when all is turned off ?????? it got him baffled lol

has it been stored for a while?.if so could be damp in elements causing your house rcd to trip.need to test which element it is that is low insulation down to earth with a meter or disconnect elements one by one and retry each time
