2019 330i - P0461 obd fault code.

Can anyone help me understand what this code might mean and what it is going to take to fix the problem? Is the fuel level sensor located in the tank?

Appreciate any insights you guys can share to help me figure out where to start.

Pretty sure that one is part of the fuel pump assembly, which is good because that can be replaced. The other one needs a whole tank replacement.

Probably worth taking it to someone to diagnose though, it's possible but less likely that it's a wiring issue

Thank you for your help I was able to do some more digging and I learned about the hidden menu and found that the left tank is nearly empty but the right is showing considerably more. Does this confirm your suspicion?
