I need a new element, but how do I know if I need a 208 volt element or a 240 volt element?

Answer Hello Shawn. The units sold for use in the United States use the 240V element Y313538. Have a great day!
I replaced the heating element in my dryer, now it seems like it is getting too hot. Clothes are wrinkled, and extremely hot also.

Answer Hello Rick. It sounds like the venting system is clogged or kinked. You will need to check the vent and clean it out. Be sure and clean the vent pipe and the dryer air duct assembly. If the air flow is not good, the unit will retain moist air causing the clothes not to dry. Try running the unit with the vent unhooked from the back of the dryer and see if the dryer works properly. Hope this helps.
