Another fuel gauge related problem

Filled up today. Gauge is now stuck at the top (it returns to the bottom when ignition is off). So basically it's getting the "full" signal all the time.

And I'm actually stumped, where do I start looking?

The only reason I could see it registering a constant full signal is something to do with the floater arm/switch. Hum.

The floater could be stuck in a position.
