'How can i remove disabled attribute from KendoUI dropdown

How can I remove the disabled attribute from the kendo DropdownList input field?

I have input field shown below on button click I would like to enable it. It's disabled by default.

<input disabled="disabled" id="PersonStatusID" name="PersonStatusID" style="width: 100%; display: none;" value="5" data-role="dropdownlist" type="text">

I tried the following but none of them are working for me.

document.getElementById('PersonStatusID').removeAttr('disabled');
$("#PersonStatusID").data("kendoDropDownList").enable(true);
$("#PersonStatusID").prop('disabled',false);
document.getElementById('PersonStatusID').prop('disabled',false);

Would suggest the following:

 var list = $("#PersonStatusID").data("kendoDropDownList");
 list.enable(true);
