Dimitri, I saw you were started and gone before me. I went to plug in the block heater last night, and the hood release would not move. This morning, I went through two glow cycles and she started, but you could tell she was not liking it! After letting her warm up for about 30 minutes, the hood release worked.
Unfortunately, after driving to Portland and back, the handle on the hood release broke, so I have used vice grips to plug her back in. There must be some secret to removing the kickpanel under the steering wheel....seems caught over by the heater duct.
