General Check engine light - fuel level sensor P0461

You have to get the fuel tank level down, drive it for 30 minutes than clear the code.
I can do it with almost all my OBD tools. I keep a OBD Link CX in the truck. It works

Thanks - will get the fuel tank low and light going to refill and then try clearing the code again. I was in the middle of a road trip when happened so had to refill with the code still, but will try again before the next fill up.

Just needs to be down a touch. Word of warning sometimes you reset it and the Check engine light is cleared but not the Triangle in the telltale, you need to let the vehicle go to sleep to clear it.

Thanks - looks to be cleared now.

What was the outcome of this ? So far I’m on the same route. Obd2 reader confirmed fuel and triggered power steering. Says it cleared but when vehicle turned on, still throwing error.

Attempted to reclear and let vehicle sit now…

I was able to borrow another code reader which cleared the code -- but, reading @IslandFalconer this now, it may have been just enough drive time between attempts that the fuel level had dropped enough. I have not seen the code since --- it's only happened the one time.
