'05 PSD Block Heater Plug

I have an '05 6.0 PSD and I usually plug it in overnight. I notived 3 days ago, that my extenson cord had a melted spot on it, it's the same cord that I used last year. So, I put a new end on my extension cord, and it was again melted. SO, this morning when I unplugged my bus, I put that extension cord on my truck and when I came home 3 hours later, that cord had the beginning of a melted spot.
I took a closer look at the plug end on my truck and one of the "blades" was discolored and VERY LOOSE. Needless to say that cord for the block heater is really buried in there and super hard to get to, so can I just remove the plug end and put on a new plug ? And is it something that I might be able to do ?

Thanks for any help & information,

Kitty
