Is your GMC Canyon or other GM truck suffering from frustrating no-start conditions, stalling, or a persistent Check Engine Light? Before you spend a fortune replacing the fuel pump, consider the heart of the fuel delivery system: the Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM). This vital component, also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM), is a common failure point on many GM vehicles. We offer a reliable, plug-and-play solution with this FPCM, which comes fully programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN with the latest GM software updates.
The Smarter Solution: Pre-Programmed for Your Truck
The biggest headache with replacing modern vehicle electronics isn’t the physical installation—it’s the expensive and time-consuming programming required afterward. A new module from the dealership is just a blank box; it needs to be coded to your truck using specialized tools. Our service eliminates that step completely. Simply provide us with your VIN during checkout, and our technicians will flash this module for you. It arrives at your door ready to install, saving you a trip to the dealer and hundreds of dollars in programming fees. This is the ideal fix for both seasoned mechanics and DIY enthusiasts.
A Technician’s Notebook: The Fuel Pump Wasn’t the Problem
I’ll never forget a 2008 Silverado that came into my bay on a tow truck. The owner had just spent a weekend dropping the fuel tank to install a new fuel pump, but the truck still wouldn’t start. His frustration was palpable. After a quick scan, I pulled code U0109—Lost Communication With Fuel Pump Control Module. I checked the FPCM, located on the driver-side frame rail, and found it was corroded and dead. These modules are exposed to the elements, and moisture intrusion is their number one enemy. We installed one of our pre-programmed modules, and the truck fired right up. It’s a classic case I’ve seen dozens of times: the FPCM fails, mimicking a bad fuel pump and leading to wasted time and money.
Common Signs of a Failing FPCM
If your vehicle is experiencing any of the following issues, a faulty 2009 Canyon Fuel Pump Module could be the culprit. A failing module can cause unpredictable fuel pressure, leading to poor performance and drivability problems.
- âś” Engine cranks but will not start
- âś” Stalling, especially under load or when coming to a stop
- âś” Hesitation or sputtering during acceleration
- âś” Reduced Engine Power message displayed on the dash
- âś” Check Engine Light with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) such as P069E, U0109, P0230, or P025A
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
Replacing the FPCM is a job most DIYers can handle in their own driveway. For the 2009 GMC Canyon and Chevy Colorado, you’ll find it mounted to a crossmember on the rear frame. On most full-size trucks and SUVs like the Silverado or Tahoe, it’s typically on the outside of the driver-side frame rail, near the spare tire.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: Find the old FPCM on the frame rail or crossmember. It’s a small, black plastic box with electrical connectors.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors. Use a socket wrench to remove the bolts or nuts holding the module to the frame.
- Install the New Module: Mount your new, pre-programmed FPCM in the same location and tighten the fasteners.
- Reconnect: Plug the electrical connectors firmly into the new module. You should hear a click.
- Final Step: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. The vehicle is now ready to start with no further programming required.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM) do?
The FPCM, or fuel pump driver module, controls the voltage sent to the electric fuel pump. Instead of running the pump at full speed all the time, it varies the pump’s speed based on engine demand. This improves efficiency and prolongs the life of the fuel pump.
Why does this module need to be programmed?
The FPCM is part of the vehicle’s computer network (CAN bus). Programming with your VIN ensures it communicates correctly with the Engine Control Module (ECM) and other systems, and that it has the correct operational parameters for your specific vehicle configuration.
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After completing your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship the module until we receive this information to perform the programming service.
Is this a difficult part to install myself?
No, this is a great DIY-friendly repair. The module is typically mounted on the vehicle’s frame and is accessible with basic hand tools. Since we handle the programming, it’s a true plug-and-play installation.
Will this fix a P069E code?
Yes, the DTC P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination) is one of the most common codes indicating a failed FPCM. Replacing the module with our pre-programmed unit is the correct fix for this code in most cases.
