Water heater element location

Drained my water heater, but I couldn't find the electric element. Could someone point it out to me?

  • It definitely has an element. The electric is what I always use. How important is it that I take it out and inspect it? This is a new to me '05 Designer 31 RLTS.
  • Looks like it is on the backside. Look for some thick wires attatched to it.
  • Look on the plate on right side of photo. Locate the actual model number and post it.
    It may not have a 120 volt element.
