How to find dryer heating element?

My frigidaire dryer is only 3 years old and the heating element has already gone out. Can you tell me where to locate it in the dryer. Model # is gler331as2 serial # is xd43009706

I just tore my dryer appart to change the element. It's not a hard job, but if you don't have any handy man skills you better not attempt it. It took me about 45 minutes to completely change everything...

Careful ... the element may not always be the issue. Is it tumbling but not heating? If it is a newer model there is a thermal fuse and a thermostat that could be bad. Also, I just replaced the control board on my frigidaire dryer after all these other things didn't fix the problem, tumbling with no heat. $125 later ... fixed dryer!
