I don't have an air dry feature but under the sani dry button there is a picture of a little lock so I held that button down for 5 seconds but no luck.

Expert:  ProTech replied 3 years ago.

can you recheck the model #, ? something isn't right in it, let me know . thanks Bryan

Customer: replied 3 years ago.

I rechecked # XXXXX it is what i show: KUDSO1FLSS6

Expert:  ProTech replied 3 years ago.

I'm sorry but that number isn't comming up in the data base, what does come up is, KUDS01FLSS0 and your sure its not that correct?

Customer: replied 3 years ago.

The last digit sure looks like a 6 to me.

Expert:  ProTech replied 3 years ago.

ok well I went to my whirlpool service tech sheets(whirlpool make kitchen aid) and no # XXXXX a 6, and your s doesn't have an air dry so I'm at a loss, sorry, I believe since you have a little lock on the control then thats what you need to push and hold, if it doesn't unlock the control board is bad, thats all I have on this one, thanks Bryan

Customer: replied 3 years ago.

Thanks for trying. D
