On top of the oven is a cover with 6 screws in it, loosen the screws and remove the cover. You will see two pulleys, most likely one of the pulleys are loose, try tightening the set screws, the one on the right can be tricky because the set screw is under the pulley. Good luck!

    Replace the aluminum pulley with a similar cast iron one with two set screws. If it only comes with one drill and tap a second 90 degrees from the other. The bore on the aluminum pulley wears out and within a week you'll be up there re-tightening it again.

Oven doesn't give steam but it does reach the temp.how can i fix that?

First locate the water solenoid valve. Disconnect the water line to the inlet side of the valve to make sure water is getting to the valve. Once that's verified, disconnect the outlet side of the valve. Activate the steam and verify that the valve opens and there's a good amount of water coming out of the valve. If no water comes out. Verify that the coil is getting energized with the correct voltage. If the correct voltage is present and you have no water coming out. Replace the solenoid. If everything is working then remove the left panel inside the oven to check for blockage in the steam manifold. The manifold consists of a pipe with several spray nozzles that spray water on rebar. Remove all the nozzles and activate the steam. Do this several times to purge any rust or debri. Clean the nozzles and replace them. You should be good to go.

The top bar on the inside that holds the racks has stopped spinning during bake.

The top bar, referred to as the "carrier" will only rotate when you start your bake cycle. If there is an issue with the rotation you should hear a steady buzzer about once every second. If you are hearing the buzzer that means the rack alignment switch isn't closing momentarily during rotation like it should be. This could be a result of a number of things, such as a bad rack switch, mis-adjusted rack switch, burned or broken wire on rack switch, bad rotation motor, rotation motor chain or sprockets fell off or are loose, or the shaft switch bar is loose (unlikely).
If you are NOT hearing the beeping then the carrier inside the oven itself could have some loose set screws and the shaft could be spinning freely inside the carrier.
Look on top of the oven and you will see a rectangular shield covering the lift and rotation assembly, remove these covers and verify if the shaft is spinning and hitting the little switch mounted near the top of the shaft.

I have a Baxter oven OV210G, When the door is open the rack will not stop or lower. The micro switches all work and relays seem to work but I can't find the MR3 cantactor and don't if that is the problem...

When you open the door check to see if your burner and circulation fan remain on, if they do you have an issue with your door switch.
Also if your rotation micro-switch was bad you would get a buzzer every 1 second because the oven would think the carrier isn't rotating.
It's hard to troubleshoot beyond that without seeing the oven, its possible you could have a bad relay on your control board. In this case I would call an authorized service provider to have to check the oven out.

Ovne do not turne withe rack in side the ovne

Does the rack raise? Are you hearing a buzzing every second? You could have a bad rotation motor, or the drive chain could have just fallen off. Both of these repairs aren't terribly difficult but are extremely annoying. It might be a best use of your time and resources to call an authorized service provider and have them repair the issue.
If you're feeling ambitious the first thing you want to do is verify that your rotation motor is still functioning and that the gearbox is not stripped out. Make sure the supply power to the oven is off, climb up on top of the oven and remove the covers over the lift and rotation assembly if they are not already removed. You should see a black cylindrical motor with a plastic fan blade on the top, this is your rotation motor. Spin the fan blade with your finger while looking at the motor shaft, it should be rotating, if it is not you need a new motor. To change your rotation motor you will need a 5/16" ratcheting box wrench and it can be a nightmare the first time you change one. Unwire the motor, pay attention to which wires you disconnected. Remove the four screws underneath the motor and slide the motor straight up through the hole. Change the chain sprocket over to your new motor and reverse the steps.

If your motor IS rotating when you spin the fan then your chain may have slipped off. Loosen the four screws holding the rotation motor in place so you can slide it back and forth. Lift up on the shaft and place a screw driver in between the metal disc above the big sprocket to keep the weight off of the sprocket. Put the chain on the small sprocket first and then slowly work the chain onto the large sprocket. Once the chain is on lower the shaft back down and tighten the motor back up. Hopefully your rack should start rotating again, if it doesn't the gears in the gearbox could still be stripped causing it to slip, in which case you should call an authorized service provider to service the oven, or see above.

Rack does not stop at the right positin

This could potentially be a very easy solution. First you need to verify if when you open the door does the carrier stop immediately regardless of where it is in its rotation or does it continue to a certain point every time and stop in the same place?

If it stops in the same place you need to adjust the alignment bar on top of the shaft. On top of the oven remove the metal shields covering the rotation and lift assembly. You will see a steel ring with two small bars coming out of it attached to the top of the shaft, these bars strike the rack alignment switch when the come around. Have someone on the ground center the rack carrier. Loose the metal ring set screw and turn it until it is sticking the switch, you'll hear it click. Tighten it a little bit and have them start the oven and open the door to see if it stops straight. Continue making adjustments until it is stopping straight.
If when you open the door the rotation stops immediately regardless of which way the carrier is pointing then you have an issue with your rack alignment or pointer switch. Usually in this case the switch needs to be replaced, but sometimes its just a matter of a wire fell off the switch. Before you try to replace any wires make sure the power to the oven is off.

We are having trouble with our Double Rack Oven, DRO2G gas. We have lost the rotation. The belt is fine. The telay kicks in when we push the start button but nothing turns. We did get some turning when...

Dave Olivia's Croutons
1 check to see if the fan on the back of the rotation motor is turining
if no then motor / fuses / contacts in the relay may be gone
2- is the shaft turning on the pulley side ( but not turning the pulley) if yes then key has come out of drive shaft
3- if the motor fan is turning and the shaft with the pulley on it is not then the gear (probably the bronze spur gear) is damaged
good luck

Stopping the self-clean function after starting in erro

You don't have a cancel clean button on it? If not, you may have a reset button in the back of the oven. Otherwise, you may have to let it "run the cycle". Hopefully, you don't have wooden/plastic handles on your frying pans.
