Yeah. This is a brand new truck with just over 2000km on it. I'm going to
let the dealer figure it out. It's good for them to learn new stuff. I
really think it's a faulty block heater. On every other vehicle I've owned,
unplugging the heater cable produces a spark at the plug (it's really dry at
-20). This thing, no spark.
Bill.
I test muy block heater with one of those live wire testers that you
just have to touch the cable and it beeps if current is going through
the wire. I think you know what tool 'm talking about. Got mind at CTC
for about $14 on sale.
They tested it at the dealership with something similar, said it's fine.
I put an ohm meter across it and got very low resistance compared to the
heater in my wife's little car.
It has continuity, but I don't think it is making heat.
