Answer

Hello Bear. These are not hard to change out. Remove the back panel of the dryer, and locate the heater in the bottom right corner. Remove the wires going to the heater and the screws holding the heater on the machine. Pull down on the heater and it will come off. Reinstall in reverse order. The heater runs on 240 volts when on. Hope this helps.
