oldmacktrucks Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Its that time of year when we all (well us up north anyways) LOL start to plug in our trucks at night. My uncles Value Liner went up last night due to a frayed block heater cord. Thank god we were there and caught it in time, no damage other than a melted plug. Be sure to check your cords and use GFI's he didnt have a GFI and the breaker in the shop never popped. This was cause due to a stressed cord being used, they pull 1500 watts plus and if your heater and or cord is not 100% it can happen to you! Check your cords 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/16767-block-heater-fire/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
