Restore Your Vehicle’s Fuel System Performance
Is your 2008-2009 Cadillac Escalade, or another compatible GM truck or SUV, suddenly stalling, hesitating, or refusing to start? Before you condemn the in-tank fuel pump, the culprit is often a failed Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM). This critical component regulates the voltage sent to your fuel pump, ensuring precise fuel pressure for optimal engine performance and efficiency. When it fails, it can cause a wide range of frustrating and debilitating symptoms, leaving you stranded. This module, part number 25967325, is the definitive solution to get your vehicle running reliably again.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2008 Sierra 1500 come into the shop on a tow truck. The owner was convinced his fuel pump had died; the truck would crank but wouldn’t start. He had already priced out the job, which involves the labor-intensive process of dropping the fuel tank. Our first step, however, was to scan for codes. We found a P069E – Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded OFF. Instead of jumping straight to the pump, we checked the FPCM located on the frame rail. It was heavily corroded from road salt and moisture. We connected a new, programmed module, and the truck fired right up. A simple module replacement saved the customer over six hundred dollars and a full day of labor. It’s a classic case of diagnosing the entire system, not just the most obvious part.
Common Symptoms of a Failing FPCM
- âś” Engine cranks but will not start.
- âś” Stalling, especially under load or during acceleration.
- âś” Rough idle or engine hesitation.
- âś” Reduced engine power and poor fuel economy.
- âś” Check Engine Light with codes like P069E, P0230, or P025A.
- âś” A noticeable whining sound from the fuel pump, or no sound at all.
The Critical Role of Your 2008-2009 Escalade Fuel Pump Module
In older vehicles, the fuel pump ran at full speed constantly. Modern GM vehicles, however, use this sophisticated 2008-2009 Escalade Fuel Pump Module to precisely manage fuel delivery. The Engine Control Module (ECM) sends a signal to the FPCM, which then modulates the voltage to the in-tank fuel pump based on engine load, speed, and demand. This variable-speed operation reduces wear on the fuel pump, improves fuel efficiency, and lowers emissions. However, these modules are often mounted on the vehicle’s frame rail, exposing them to harsh conditions—water, salt, and debris—which leads to corrosion and internal electronic failure over time.
Plug-and-Play Solution: Pre-Programmed for Your VIN
One of the biggest hurdles in replacing an FPCM is the need for vehicle-specific programming. A new module from the dealership won’t work correctly until it’s been flashed using their proprietary scan tools, adding extra cost and hassle. We eliminate that step entirely. When you purchase this module from us, you simply provide your vehicle’s VIN. Our technicians will program the module with the latest GM-certified software specific to your vehicle. This ensures that when the part arrives, it is a true plug-and-play replacement. No dealer visits, no expensive programming fees—just a straightforward installation to get you back on the road fast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming after I receive this module?
No. We program the module to your specific vehicle using the VIN you provide during checkout. It will arrive ready for installation with no further programming required.
Where is the FPCM located on my vehicle?
On most trucks and large SUVs like the Escalade, Tahoe, and Silverado, the module is located on the driver’s side frame rail, typically above the spare tire. On other models like the Traverse or Acadia, it may be on a rear crossmember. Always consult a service manual for the exact location on your specific vehicle.
How do I know if my fuel pump or the FPCM is bad?
While symptoms can be similar, a key indicator is a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) specifically pointing to the FPCM, such as P069E. A technician can also test for voltage at the fuel pump connector. If there is no or erratic voltage from the FPCM, the module is likely the problem. Given the high failure rate and exposure to the elements, the FPCM is a very common point of failure.
Is this a genuine OEM part?
This is a high-quality replacement part built to meet or exceed original equipment specifications. It is programmed with genuine GM software to ensure perfect communication with your vehicle’s other computers.
What happens if I don’t provide my VIN?
Providing your VIN is mandatory for this part. We cannot ship the module without programming it, as it will not function correctly in your vehicle. This service is included in the price and ensures a successful repair.
