Coolant Leak from block heater? Kubota BX

[civilian]

Had a closer look, the heater unit itself failed. Leaking right through one of the prongs in the middle of the plug

*Dealer is sending tech by to replace the unit.

Best way is for the dealer to fix. Did that happen yet?

Yup they came by today and replaced it.

Yup they came by today and replaced it.

And thanks for following up with the results, just too many posters fade away after having solicited members aid.

Did you put Loctite on the bushing part that goes into the block? Did you put Teflon tape on the block heater threads? That's what the instructions call for.

The Kubota dealer sent a tech out to do it as mentioned above. All is well
