Remove the back cover set it aside, you will see 2 vertical metal venting tubes. The one on the right holds the element, disconnect the two wires at the bottom that are side by side,
next remove the two hex head screws (one on each side) that holds the element in place pull down to slide it out. The new one slides right in all it takes is about 30 minutes or less

The bottom limit is engineered to open at 250F and the small top one is supposed to open at 300F. The bottom did not have time to click in and so it is considered weak. the kit comes with both thermostats in it Part number 279769

If this is a new element, this is normal until it has been used a few cycles. Use it and watch it carefully for a while. If it continues have a competent person to take the rear panel off and check for burnt wires or lint inside the unit.
