Recently as of today I replaced my wax motor for my detergent dispenser on my late 90s built Whirlpool powerclean. Now that it’s working, it’s been pushing lots of old old and I mean OLD rinse aid that reeks awfully out during the cycle. It caught me thinking where does it get dispensed into the tub? Does it come out of a hole at the bottom of the door/tub? I’m sure it’s something very obvious but I’ve not been able to figure it out.

Thanks to those who recommended I take a look at the wax motor, as mentioned it was indeed the culprit as to why my soap door would never activate and it’s working beautifully now with a new one in place. If anyone knows, let me know.

Comes out right around where the cap and dispenser come through the door,  pretty much all RADs dispense under or near the cap where you fill the reservoir, earlier RADs had a 2nd opening about 3" below where you filled the reservoir.
