1-6
Install engine block heater into core plug opening and tighten with adjustable pliers or 12 Point Crows foot (1 7/16”) until gasket is seated completely to engine block. Tighten the heater an additional 60 +/‐ 10 degrees to acquire a torque of 90 +/‐ 0.5 [N‐m] or 66 +/‐ 0.5 [ft‐lbs].
CAUTION: Failure to follow proper tightening procedures may allow coolant to leak onto the hot exhaust pipe and cause a fire, resulting in serious personal injury and property damage.
1-7
Plug harness into heater element. Orient orange connector towards the front by twisting the orange connector inside the heater. Inside of heater can be rotated relative to the outer body.
1-8

1-10
Route engine heater harness between the engine block and the upper radiator hose. Attach the third heat resistant wire tie to the engine block heater harness where the tape mark meets the main engine ECU harness towards the passenger side chassis of the vehicle.
1-11
Direct the engine block heater harness around radiator and down towards the radiator plastic plug and through the trim hole for the ambient temperature sensor harness.
1-12
Tie down the heat resistant wire tie to the ambient temperature harness that is fed through the slot in the radiator trim.
