I got my plug from dieselsite and drilled & tapped it myself for the fitting. Here is one that is already pre-fabbed and comes with the code eliminator pigtail: Ford 7.3L Air Intake Heater Plug with Boost Fitting & 0541 Eliminator Powerstrok

The pre-fabbed ones sound a little pricey, if you can do it yourself. You can fab the code eliminator, too.

Knock on wood, mine has never thrown a code. I just removed the heater and the power cable from the solenoid. Every winter the truck sees temps in the minus teens to twenties. So for me, I don't see that the code eliminator is necessary.

Unless you have scanned them, you'd never know if the code was there, you won't get a CEL with this one, it only throws a soft code. Mine is there when I scan it......it's harmless though, the system is just recognizing when you remove that heater.

I don't have the AutoEnginuity, but I believe that if the PCM cannot "read" certain circuits, some of the tests will abort. The code is a soft code that doesn't set the SES light. I don't get the codes anymore with my code eliminators for the EBVP, AIH, and WG Solenoid deletes.
