It should be sticking out of the grill in front of the radiator.. Look around that area, if it exists.
somewhere on the engine block i suspect
The block heater plug on a 4300 International truck is located just behind the battery. A heavy duty outdoor cord will be necessary to plug the block heater into an electrical outlet.
There are no block heaters on gasoline trucks. Dielsel trucks have them on the bottom of the engine block so that heat rises. And if there is one installed on the truck there would be an outlet cord in the grill of the truck.
there is no fuse for a block heater the block heater is installed in the oil cooler on side of engine a lead goes from heater to plug in at front of engine this heater is plugged into 110 power from house.it is not controlled by anything in the truck if it is not working have the wiring checked and have the heater checked wiring for block heater is sold separate to heater,and costs about 80 bucks,heater cost about 70 bucks
It is located just above the starter, which is on the passenger side of the truck.
It doesn't come with one. You have to go buy it from the dealer.
It is just heating elements that wrap the engine and when pluged in it keeps the block warm as well as the oil and water
I had one of these when I lived in Wyoming. A freeze plug in your engine block is replaced with a heater plug that keeps the block warm so your fluids don't freeze. There is what looks like an extension cord you use to plug the block heater into an outlet. I had a 25 foot cord I ran from my bedroom window to the plug hanging under my truck parked outside my apartment.
No. You unplug the block heater BEFORE you start the truck.
The Cummins engine does not come with the cord installed unless the truck has the cold weather package. Normally you have to buy the cord from the dealer. It will go on the passenger side of the engine. The heater is in the block behind the oil filter.
The Block heater plug location is dependent on:YearEngineWas factory installed or dealerHas the cord be replaced or repaired.On occasion I have had to crawl under a truck, find the block heater and follow the cord to the plug.
Generally, the Block Heater cord is tucked into the back of the bumper - More toward the passenger side of the truck. If your truck is equipped with one, that is. Although, I can't see why anyone would NOT order it - Considering it's only a $35 option.
