BD Diesel 1041520 Killer Grid Heater Upgrade Kit

The BD Diesel 1041520 Killer Grid Heater Upgrade Kit will address a major potential problem that can damage your truck’s engine. This potential issue lies in the electrical connection to the intake grid heater. When powering the grid heater, 200 amps pass through a small nut and bolt inside the intake, and this is known to fail over time and eventually arc and break off. This nut will drop into the engine, leading to massive damage to the piston, head, and valves.

Various solutions currently on the market address this issue, but they can be costly. These fixes drastically reduce the amount of heat available to the engine and typically require tuning or do not work well in colder climates. This kit upgrades that faulty electrical circuit by eliminating the problematic bolt and nut inside the intake while retaining the factory functionality of the heater. Furthermore, it is cost-effective and offers a straightforward installation.

Note: 2007-2012 applications require the use of a Dremel/rotary tool or a hacksaw to remove an aluminum tab on the grid heater. (Please see the installation manual for detailed instructions.)
