The dryer spins and goes through its cycle, but will not heat up. I'm assuming it's the heating element, but I can't figure out how to check it or remove it to be replaced.

If it appears to have continuity then the limit up top is probably bad. REPAIR PIX WITH MANUAL Bonus stuff: If that all checks good and the power is fine coming in then you will need to check the innards of the TIMER.
