It's very easy to replace the heating element. First get a multimeter to
test if the element is indeed burnt out. Unplug the power, then exposing
the heating element, test the resistance between the two leads on the
element. If the meter shows infinite or zero, then it's burnt out.
buy a replacement for your model from store or online. Make sure the
wattage is correct. you can look this up from your water heater's manual or
check whirlpool website.
To replace heating element, you just need to turn off the power to the
heater, shut off water and drain the tank, release the electric wire going
into the heating element, use a special socket of correct size to turn the
existing heating element until it's loose, completely unscrew it and pull it
out, thread the new one in, make sure you remove the old gasket and install
new one, reattach the electric wire tightly, cover it up, turn on water,
open the pressure relieve valve or a hot water faucet to let air out, WAIT
UNTIL TANK IS FILLED COMPLETELY, Only then turn power back on.
If you are still unsure about this from just reading, search on youtube
about replacing water heater heating element. There should be plenty of
instruction videos.
