Remove front cover, remove ice deflector shield, remove the plastic grate in the sump tray that keeps ice from falling into it. Now just behind the water sump tray where ice falls into bin on the right and left side are the bin full sensors you can see where the wire runs through cabinet from controller to them. grab them and pull straight out to the left and right some times you have to wiggle them while pulling. There is plenty of wire on them so you can pull them out and clean.
SOURCE: how do i get to the sensors for full bin to clean
These units have a real problem with the bin controls. I can't begin to tell you how bad. There are two - for lack of a better term - paddles - that are basically just pushed into the left and right side of the drop area that have small lenses in them with a low level beam that when broken indicates a full bin. You have to reach in from under the bin opening and feel to the left and right, pull the paddles toward the middle and there should be enough slack on the wires to get a good hold of them and clean the lenses with a Q-tip soaked in grapefruit juice. Pop them back in and try them - if that doesn't work (and sorry but most of the time it doesn't) then they will have to be replaced.
