Since this thread is already resurrected, I thought I'd add to it..
I was looking for the Toyota OEM block heater, but read that Toyota Canada recently issued a recall for the factory unit due to manufacturing faults that could lead to a short circuit. https://www.toyota.ca/toyota/en/abou...-block-heaters If you can't find the OEM model, the recall may have affected your region as well. I found 2 options for aftermarket, cartridge style block heaters that are listed to fit our cars: - Kat's Heaters, p/n: 11813 - Zerostart (Phillips-Temro), p/n: 3100129 When I went to the local Ideal Supply (NAPA in Canada) they said they don't carry the Kat's, that it's only in the U.S. stores. The Zerostart, made by Phillips-Temro, is the one stocked in the Canadian stores. Installation follows the information given in this thread. There's also a good YouTube video install on a Tacoma and Corolla if you search. Hope that helps someone stay warm this winter. -- Adam |
