I just replaced the plug cause one of the ends on the plug broke, it split right open. So I picked up a new plug, cut this one off, spliced the wires and connected to the terminals.
I have to say this job was a major pain in the [censored] cause the plug I bought is a cheap POS.
The only thing is, it says connect black wire to brass terminal and white to silver terminal. So there should be 1 black wire, 1 white and 1 green. I have 2 black and 1 green! So i connected 1 black to the brass and the other black to the silver.
If it doesnt work, then ill have to reverse them. But i want to know whats the best way to tell if its working? Because from what i know, my block heater doesnt make any noises when plugged nor does it feel warmer.
