What brand and size water heater do you have? Most RV water heaters access the electric element from the front (outside the RV) not from behind the water heater.

Thanks for the response, John. Yep, MOST water heaters are as you say. This is an Atwood GC10A-4E. The rig is a 2016 (not 2012) Montana High Country MH370BR.

It looks like it is on the oposite side from the exterior panel. Kind of strange, and I am not sure I would want one built that way.

It is not accessible from the inside?

Unless you've turned on electric without filled water what makes you suspect the element?
