Ok I have tryed to plug the block heater into an electric outlet with my house and each time I do I hear kind of like a hisss (mabe the oil heating up) Has anyone ever had this problem?

I don't necessarily need my block heater plugged in, but with the minus 30 weather i would hate that not being able to start my focus one time.

When do you hear the hiss? Is it when you plug it in or is it after it has been pluged in over night?

Get a new cord. Grab the old cord, follow it down to the heater and carefully remove it. Plug in new cord. Done. :D

how/why did you melted the cord? there could be something inside that needs attention. It could have a short inside the heater and it causes the wires to overheat and melt.
