A viable WIMP candidate, the lightest Kaluza-Klein particle (LKP), is motivated by theories of universal extra dimensions. LKPs can scatter off nuclei in large celestial bodies, like the Sun, and become trapped within their deep gravitational wells, leading to high WIMP densities in the objects core. Pair-wise LKP annihilation could lead to a detectable high energy neutrino flux from the center of the Sun in the IceCube neutrino telescope. We describe an ongoing search for Kaluza-Klein solar WIMPs with the AMANDA-II data for the year 2001, and also present a UED dark matter sensitivity projected to 180 days from a study of data taken with the combined AMANDA II and IceCube detector in the year 2007. A competitive sensitivity, compared to existing direct and indirect search experiments, on the spin-dependent cross section of the LKP on protons is also presented.
