So. Back in december 26th, I got my first Ram. 2026 Laramie with the SO I6 on it. After 3 days I got a CEL and after scanning P0461 came up.

took it to the dealer, once, twice and in Jan for the 3rd time. They were unable to troubleshoot and fix it, so they opted to give me a replacement car under warranty.

Got delivery yesterday of a Billet Gray Laramie. all good. picked it up, drove it home (had 1/2 fuel tank). today I took it for a quick drive to get lunch with the wife and suddenly the damn CEL comes up again !! only 130 Km on the odometer! Took it with 60 Km, so I've been driving it for only 70km (about 40 miles).

scan it and ... same P0461 error code! This has to be a manufacturer issue. has anybody experienced this? I don't want to take it to the dealer again, thay gave me this new one because they were unable to fix my other car (with 1000 Km on it). so they wont be able to fix this one either!

anybody has seen this?

Fuel pump/sender related, bad ground on fuel tank or Pcm needs a software flash with updated software may be a bug that hasnt been worked out as with some new cars especially ones with so much tech nowadays

Is there a place where I can find wiring diagrams? and/or location of fuel sender and ground points? Point is the dealer is not capable of solving the issue. they already replaced the truck with a new one, took weeks, I don't want to go over the same crap..I rather try to troubleshoot myself.
