A viable WIMP candidate, the lightest Kaluza-Klein particle (LKP), ismotivated by theories of universal extra dimensions. LKPs can scatter offnuclei in large celestial bodies, like the Sun, and become trapped within theirdeep gravitational wells, leading to high WIMP densities in the object's core.Pair-wise LKP annihilation could lead to a detectable high energy neutrino fluxfrom the center of the Sun in the IceCube neutrino telescope. We describe anongoing search for Kaluza-Klein solar WIMPs with the AMANDA-II data for theyear 2001, and also present a UED dark matter sensitivity projected to 180 daysfrom a study of data taken with the combined AMANDA II and IceCube detector inthe year 2007. A competitive sensitivity, compared to existing direct andindirect search experiments, on the spin-dependent cross section of the LKP onprotons is also presented.
