Installation Location of Engine Block Heater on 2016 Nissan NV2500 with the 5.6L V8
Question:
Where does the Kats #KH11412 block heater go on my 2016 Nissan NV2500 with the 5.6L V8? Do you simply remove a threaded plug and screw in the threaded block heater? Thanks.

The Kat's Heaters Custom Engine Block Heater # KH11412 will install in the front right of your 2016 Nissan NV2500 with the 5.6L V8. I've attached a diagram to assist. You will also want to use a thread sealant like # LT37482 or # LT37615.
It is not quite as simple as unscrewing the plug and screwing in the heater, but it is close. You will need to drain your cooling system first because the plug gets immersed in coolant. Other than that, it is basically unscrewing and then screwing in the heater using thread sealant.
