The heating element probably burned out causing the open circuit. The element needs to be submerged in coolant completely, all the time that it is plugged in.
The engine block heater cord for the 2009 Ford Flex is at the top front section of the engine, right above the radiator fan. Open the hood and look down toward the radiator, it is right in front on top of the radiator. The cord has a round cover on it. Remove the round cover and you will see the 3-prong plug-in.
Thermostat stuck open, heater core clogged, or the heater temperture control vlalve is defective.
All stores are open until out of stock - that shouldn't happen for about another month.
If the bulb's filament is broken, the whole circuit becomes open. If the bulb is in a series circuit or is the only bulb, the electricity would no longer flow. If the bulb is in a parallel circuit, along with other bulbs, then only the blown bulb would go out, and the other bulbs would still work.
Walmart is open on Columbus and so are the other mega block stores like Target, Best Buy etc.
The circuit is open. Wires could be disconnected/damaged or the heater element is burned out.
does the bypass valve on elution heater be open or closed
Easiest is to plug in the block heater cord with the hood open. Follow the cord to where the block heater is located and you should hear a gurgling sound similar to an electric kettle. If you don't check your power source. If you can reach the block heater unplug the cord from it and check the power at the end that plugs into the heater with a 2 prong tester to make sure it's not the cord causing the problem.

When facing the car with the hood open, the block heater cord is stored in the front right corner just behind the headlight. It has plenty of cord available also.
There is no fuse. It means there is a problem in the catalyst moniter heater circuit bank #2, sensor #2. here is a brief description of why this code was set: During testing the HO2S Heaters are checked for opens/shorts and excessive current draw. The test fails when current draw exceeds a calibrated limit and/or an open or short is detected. Possible causes: Short to VPWR in harness or HO2S. Water in harness connector. Open VPWR circuit. Open GND circuit. Low battery voltage. Corrosion or poor mating terminals and wiring Damaged HO2S heater. Damaged PCM wiring. Damaged HO2S heater. Damaged PCM.
Yes, an open in main line of a parallel circuit will effect the entire circuit current and make the whole circuit current zero
Heated oxygen sensor heater circuit malfunction (bank 1, sensor 1): Open or short in heated oxygen sensor heater circuit Heated oxygen sensor heater malfunction (Haynes Repair Manual)
No, I would suspect a stuck open thermostat, a failing (worn) water pump or clogged heater core. Also chedk for a sticking heater control valve in the coolant circuit if fitted. It could also be a internally swelled heater hose from the block to the heater core blocking proper coolant flow..
Yes there is, look under your front license plate, or where one would be if they aren't required in your state. Then go right, there should be a flip open cap covering a plug for the block heater there.That is if your vehicle has one installed - not all Taurus/Sables have an engine block heater.
The heater may not be on - but the fan still blows air through the vents when they're open !
Check wiring connections Check fuse block--sometimes holders become loose and expand creating heat and pening circuit until they cool down and close circuit maybe fan motor itself has an open circuit could be loose connection in climate control unit
