10mm bolt in centre of element needs undoing and then carefully lever it out of the back of the drum.you will need the machines back panel off to gain access.once heater is removed refit in reverse making sure element locates into mounting bracket inside the drum.(look inside where element came out with a torch and you will see mounting bracket).
