Just changed to a new fuel pump for a 2012 Mercedes Benz GL350 Bluetec. VIN 4JGBF2FEE3CA764456 (w164, x164 MODEL) Everything is working fine as it should but my fuel gauge meter on my IC instrument Cluster is not moving. I pulled all the fuel pump related fuses and relay and everything is ok. The error i am getting with my scanner is as follows

SYSTEM: IC-INSTRUMENT CLUSTER CODE: 914A DESCRIPTION THE FUEL TANK SENSOR SIGNAL IS IMPLAUSIBLE STATUS : STORED AND CURRENT
:

I've never done this on my car, but on some other cars, the fuel level sender is in the same place as the fuel pump. Meaning, in order to get to the fuel pump, I had to first remove the sender. Is this the case for you? If so, go back and check your work looking for missed connections or damaged wires. Is there anything else that you disconnected? Did you try deleting the error message?

I tried to delete the error message but it would not allow me with the scanner. It is stored and current. Everything was connected correctly and all fuses and relays were checked as well. I wonder if i have to get something reprogrammed like the rear sam but i find that odd. It should be plug and play.

Find someone with a better scanner - I'd start with that.
