Shannon for Model Number Kitchen Aid Ice Maker KUIA18PNLS5 After turning on the ice machine, it produces a full bin of ice with no problems. The problem occurs after the ice bin is full. The circulation pump continues to attempt to circulate water from the bin, but there is not enough water in the bin and the circulation pump sucks air and will not shut off, and no water is added to the bin, at which time I cut off the ice maker.
