Restore Your Truck’s Reliability and End Frustrating Stalls
Is your 2008-2009 GMC Yukon, Silverado, or Tahoe suddenly stalling, hesitating, or refusing to start? You’re not alone. These are classic signs of a failing Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), a critical component that regulates power to your fuel pump. When it falters, it leaves you stranded and searching for a solution. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a safety concern. Don’t let a small electronic module dictate when and where your truck decides to quit.
We offer a definitive, hassle-free solution. This is a direct-replacement Fuel Pump Control Module, part number 25785013, that arrives at your door fully programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN. We flash it with the latest, most stable software from GM, ensuring optimal communication and performance right out of the box. You get to skip the expensive trip to the dealership for programming, saving you both time and hundreds of dollars in labor and service fees. This is the smart, efficient fix for both professional mechanics and determined DIYers.
From the Diagnostic Bay: The Case of the Intermittent Stall
I once had a 2008 Silverado 1500 in my shop with a problem that was driving the owner crazy. The truck would run perfectly for days, then suddenly stall at a red light or lose power on the highway, especially on hot days. The owner had already replaced the in-tank fuel pump, assuming that was the issue, but the problem persisted. When I hooked up my scan tool, I found a stored DTC U0109, “Lost Communication With Fuel Pump Control Module.” A quick inspection under the truck revealed the FPCM mounted to the frame rail, exposed to heat, water, and road salt. These modules are notorious for failing from thermal stress and corrosion. We installed a new, pre-programmed FPCM, and the truck has been running flawlessly ever since. It’s often the controller, not the pump itself.
Is Your Truck Exhibiting These Symptoms?
A failing FPCM can manifest in several ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is the likely culprit:
- âś” Engine stalls unexpectedly, especially when warm
- âś” Vehicle cranks but refuses to start (no-start condition)
- âś” Reduced engine power and poor acceleration
- âś” Hesitation or sputtering during driving
- âś” Check Engine Light with codes like P069E, P0230, or U0109
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
Replacing your FPCM is a job you can tackle in your own driveway. Since our module comes pre-programmed, there are no complex electronic steps required. Just swap the part.
- Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery before starting any electrical work.
- Locate the Module: On most compatible GM trucks and SUVs (like the Yukon, Tahoe, Silverado), the FPCM is mounted on the driver’s side frame rail, near the spare tire. On other models, it may be on a rear crossmember or in the engine bay. A quick visual inspection will confirm its location.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connector(s) from the old module. Then, remove the bolts or nuts holding it to the frame. The old unit may be corroded, so a little penetrating oil can help.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed FPCM into place. Reconnect the electrical harness, making sure it clicks securely into place.
- Final Step: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start the vehicle to confirm the repair. Your truck should now start and run smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We will program the module before shipping it to you.
Is any additional programming needed after installation?
No. This module is a true plug-and-play solution. Because we flash it with your vehicle’s VIN and the latest GM software, no further action is required from a dealer or mechanic.
What if I install it and my truck still won’t start?
While the FPCM is a very common failure point, a no-start condition can also be caused by a failed fuel pump, a clogged fuel filter, or a bad crankshaft position sensor. This module solves the control side of the equation, which is often the primary culprit.
Where is the FPCM located on a 2008 Yukon?
On the 2008-2009 GMC Yukon, Tahoe, and Suburban, the Fuel Pump Control Module is typically mounted to the inside of the driver-side frame rail, roughly above the rear axle.
Will this fix a P069E check engine light code?
Yes, the Diagnostic Trouble Code P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination) directly points to a fault within the FPCM system. Replacing a faulty module with our pre-programmed unit is the correct repair for this code.
