2023 Gladiator ECO Diesel Jeep Blockheater

[TheSolarWizard]

It's easy to see if you have the heater or brass plug. Look right behind the spring perch on the engine block. Just above the frame rail. It will either have a rubber plug covering the connection point or just be a brass plug like in the picture in the above post.

Yes - aft side of front passenger wheel well. Insert into already installed brass receptacle (23 JTRD)

You will have this orange cover if it came reinstalled.

I found the brass where I think I need to connect a Blockheater or some type of plug . Again I have a 2023 diesel gladiator truck. What’s my step!

I lost all my responds about the diesel Blockheater on a 2023 gladiator truck

2 ways you can do this. The easy way of plug and play. See post 13 of what Biodiesel posted. Or the block heater that screws into the block. Replacing that plug.

This is where I have my plug located.

That's where my plug is resting at the moment. I still need to figure out where to put the plug receptacle on the front bumper.

I installed one a few weeks ago on my 2023 EcoDiesel. Plugging it in was super easy. The hard part (for me) was figuring out how to run the wiring, partly because I'm OCD. I still need to install a plug receptacle on the front of the bumper.

I suffer from the same. Paired this with the Noco battery tender works great.

That looks good. I'm considering the same location but haven't fully decided yet. The bumper on the Rubicon is a little tricky. Unlike my Ram 1500 where there's literally nothing behind the chrome bumper, the Gladiator bumper is closed off, so I don't know what's behind the first layer of metal.
