p0461
Hi all. Im getting a p0461 trouble code, fuel level sensor issue. I knew something was up because I could see the gage in the dash acting strangely, and I even let myself run out of gas once. Makes me feel a bit better that the gage was wrong, but... I searched here but didn't find anything as far as information. I put a whole new fuel pump assembly along with a FPDM in just around 12k miles ago, so I'm surprised its bad already. Is there anything I should try or know before I go thru this PITA procedure again? I hate dropping the tank. Well, to clarify, I hate putting it back up.
Thanks for any info!

Description: This DTC sets when the FLI signal repeatedly moves in and out of range, exceeding the minimum or maximum allowable calibrated parameters for a specified fuel fill percentage in the fuel tank. For vehicles with a dual container (saddle type) fuel tank either fuel level sensor may set this DTC.
Possible Causes:
Diagnostic Aids: Verify aftermarket equipment does not generate radio frequency interference or electromagnetic interference which may cause noisy FLI input signal.
