there's nothing to a dryer. So no real reason to replace it (at a cost of
$300 - $1000) just because it needs a $79 element. As mentioned before,
make sure you have proper electric service to the machine. Then unplug it
and start taking it apart from the back.


Except some machines come apart from the front...

....

Specifically, for GE, there are two clips at front to raise the top,
then the front comes off w/ two screws at the top so can pull the drum
to get access to the heating elements, etc...
