There is a pair of master reset buttons above the hot Water heater element. They are behind a rubber protective cover. Try resetting them and see what happens. If you have hot water then the element is working at least a little bit. To replacing the element is not hard but you may have to undo the propane feed to the heating flue to pull the electrical element.
The on off switch may be stuck in the on position. For emergency you can use the circuit break to shut off the electrical feed to the hot water heater but I remember reading that it will weaken the break with a lot of use and the circuit break will need replacing.
I hope this helps.
