Mine is clipped up in the passenger side fog light area. Keep in mind that not all trucks automatically come with them any more. I have read of folks on here looking for the plug only to find out their truck is not equipped. Mine was sold in a cold weather state so it came with the block heater and supplemental cab heater automatically.

Manual says:
• locate the block heater cord in the front tow hook pocket.

Me too! The profile info is not easily viewable when I'm on my phone. Thank for pointing it out though.

Yeah. Slight correction. It's in the passenger tow hook pocket tucked up out of sight. Here are some pics.

Question
Driver side on my gasser. Is it possible that it's passenger side for diesel and driver side for gas?

I was just beginning to wonder if it was a 350 vs 250 thing or gas vs Diesel thing. My gasser 250 is on drivers side.
