Block heater power outlet location?

I'm trying to find the power outlet for the block heater in the engine bay. I've looked pretty much everywhere and I'm not finding it!


There's a switch clearly labeled block heater at the front of the coach, along with all the other switches (front slides, water heater, etc). But there's no power outlet at the back that I can find.


Our coach is a Kountry Star 2007.


I was just looking in the engine bay of a Mountain Aire 2008, and the power outlet is clearly visible and labelled up front right at the top of the bay.



Where might mine be?

OMG! Thank you! That's where mine is as well. I've been going spare on and off for the last several weeks trying to find it!

Now, of course, I have a slight logistical complication using that power outlet for LED lighting my engine bay (protection from pack rats and other criters). But I can work with this!

In our 2004 MADP the block heater cord plugs into an electric outlet in the rear electric bay (where the shore power cable is located) controlled by the switch in the front cabinet.
