Water heater element location

Hey, thanks. I remember quite well one time I operated the rocker switch it was difficult to move and since I am of the get a bigger hammer set, I used some force and it made a "crunching" sound. I never tried it again as I was told that I had burned out the element by not having water in the tank. The element was really pretty sad looking so when I am camped at Bullhead City I'll get after it but after I dial in my satellite. Gotta watch "Better Call Saul":-)
Thanks once again.
