Faulty resistors would cause display segments to go out not stay on.
Can't see how this is causing RCD trips unless the transformer is low insulation to its fixing bolt (unlikely) or possibly the mains input socket or switch.
Theres a couple resistors on my power supply. I should have specified that. I will take the power supply out and see what I can find
