2001 Tradewinds 7373 Block Heater Question

[4charlie]

Hello...This is our first motorhome and as we live in cold weather we would like to use the block heater. Unfortunately, we are not sure were on the coach we plug it in. It has a button on the dash that says block heater, but in the the Owner's Guide supplement it shows a seperate "Engine Block Heater Receptacle" which we don't have. Can anyone tell me how to plug it in??? Thank you.

On my 2000 Tradewinds 7373 the receptical is located in the electric bay. It is a receptical and plug. The receptical is powered by the coach 110 power. The switch near the dash activates the receptical.

Thank you for the answer Bob. I don't have a separate receptical and plug for just the block heater. Will it work if I plug in the 50 amp power cord to shore power?
