Well I figured I'd better check to see if my block heater works, because it's starting to get colder in north west B.C. ( first year with this Cherokee)

When I went to follow the cord I found that it wasn't plugged in at all. Looking around I can't seem to find where it plugs into.

The block heater should plug into the first freeze plug on the drivers side of the engine. It should have a special freeze plug with a heater element on it.

Hopefully someone did not pull it and replace it with a regular freeze plug.
