Engine Block Heater Plug Location??

[GiveItaTri]

Does anyone have a picture of where the plug is located for the block heater? I know they usually come from behind the bumper, but I'm curious if that's true for the Bronco. Thanks

On every Ford that I've had with one, they're located tucked inside the driver side frame beam behind bumper.

1. • Remove and discard the bolt.
   • Separate the steering shaft and position aside.

1. If equipped, disconnect the block heater wiring harness electrical connector and retainers.

1. NOTE: Automatic transmission shown, manual transmission similar.
   • If equipped, disconnect the block heater wiring harness retainers from transmission.
   • If equipped, disconnect the block heater wiring harness retainer from the RH side transmission stud bolt.

1. If equipped, disconnect the block heater wiring harness retainer from the RH side of engine block and position aside.

Do you need to open the hood to reach the plug and use it?

 

[Rednek]

I’m interested in installing this on my 2.3 MT as well…should be a relatively easy install?

I've been wanting to see a picture of the actual cord and plug, but I've had no luck.

Mounted up inside the pass. side fender, right behind and above the headlight.

Standard 3-prong.

There is a rubber cap that is attached to protect the plug from spray and stuff. you can see it hanging down in this photo.

Thank you!!! I have to say, I hate that location. I live in northern Wisconsin and will be plugging in my Bronco for 4-5 months each year. Having to open the hood seems so inconvenient. Thanks, again.

I think that placement has made me decide to take it off of my build. I'm not opening my hood to plug that thing in all of the time.
Thanks for the photo @jwoobs!
