Bad breaker?

I have ditra heat in floor heating in my master bathroom. The circuit breaker keeps tripping even though the floor heater hasn’t run in months. I can reset the breaker and it stays on for about 5 minutes before it trips again. The only thing powered when it is tripping the the thermostat.
Would the consensus be probably a faulty breaker? It’s a 20 year old panel

if its not an Arc fault breaker they're like 20 bucks. I'd get a new one and test with it. If it IS a Arc fault, I'd swap with another breaker in your panel and see if the problem moves or not

It is an arc fault so I will try swapping with another one. I can’t imagine it would be anything other than a faulty breaker

Thats what my experience with Arc fault breakers points to

Your connection may be loose, turn breaker off and tighten it where the cable is. I agree with others, it is probably a faulty breaker.
