Is The Block Heater Hole Open Or Closed On A 2016 Ram 1500 3.6L Engine
Question:
Is the cartridge closest already open / exposed form the factory? Allowing for the heater to plug right in Or, is there a bolt / cover that needs to come off of the cartridge closest prior to installing the heater plug?

Expert Reply:
The hole in your 2016 Ram 1500's engine block should be open from the factory to accept the Kat's Heaters Custom Fit Engine Block Heater - Cartridge Style - 120V - 400 Watts # KH11814. Since the hole is open we do recommend blowing out the hole a bit with some compressed air to ensure it's clean before inserting the block heater. This block heater will pop into the "RR" position of your engine (see diagram below).
