find your oil filter, there is an orange plug right above it, the cord will go on to the frame rail (drivers side) and just follow the cord till you get to the end

Block Heater

Thanks for the information. Since its about 20 degrees today, don't think I will go look for it now. Appreciate your help.

It should poke out around the driver's side front tow hook. My '01 has a habit of crawling back behind the bumper, guess it gets cold.

You'll find it somewhere behind the front bumper, close to the driver's side tow hook. Gonna have to fish around for it if you've never used it before.
