Engine Block Heater - 17 VT 4369

My spec sheet says a engine block heater is standard equipment on my 2017 Ventana 4369. I don't have a switch on the dash and after looking inside two compartment doors at rear of coach I can't see where one would plug in or switch on/off.

Any ideas from folks with similar model/year?

Not the same coach but Newmar put my switch in the main control panel. The plug is about head high when I open the main engine hatch above the engine.

In the top rear corner of the very last compartment on the driver's side there is an outlet, and a cord hanging next to it with a cap on the end. We were told that's for the engine block heater and to leave it unplugged unless we wanted it on. There is a fuse for the engine block heater in the half bath.

Mine is in the same location as PandS reported. I don't have a switch but use the circuit breaker to turn it off and on.

Got it you guys, thanks! I would have never thought of looking there. It was plugged in of course. Why wouldn't it be for a coach sold in SW Florida....da
