Restore Your Truck’s Performance and Reliability
Is your GMC Canyon, Chevy Silverado, or other GM truck experiencing sudden stalling, hesitation, or a frustrating no-start condition? Before you condemn the fuel pump itself, the culprit is often a faulty Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM). As a technician with over two decades of diagnostic experience, I’ve seen these modules fail countless times, leaving drivers stranded. This replacement FPCM, part number 25866052, is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s fuel delivery system to factory-spec operation.
The biggest challenge with replacing this part has always been the mandatory, and often costly, trip to the dealership for programming. We eliminate that step entirely. By providing us with your vehicle’s VIN at checkout, we will program this module with the latest GM software specifically for your truck or SUV. It arrives at your door ready for a true plug-and-play installation, saving you time, money, and the headache of scheduling a dealer appointment. This isn’t just a part; it’s a complete, hassle-free repair solution.
A Technician’s Notebook
I remember a 2008 Silverado 1500 that came into the bay on a tow truck. The owner had already replaced the fuel pump, but the truck would only run for a few seconds before sputtering out. He was convinced he got a bad pump. A quick scan showed a P069E code—Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination. Instead of guessing, we went straight to the FPCM, located on the frame rail. It was heavily corroded from years of exposure to road salt and moisture. We installed a VIN-programmed module, and the truck fired right up and ran perfectly. It’s a classic case where diagnosing the controller, not just the component it operates, saves hundreds in unnecessary parts and labor.
Common Signs of a Failing FPCM
A failing fuel pump driver module can mimic a bad fuel pump. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is a likely cause. Look out for these trouble codes on your scan tool.
- ✔ Engine cranks but will not start
- ✔ Vehicle stalls unexpectedly, especially under load
- ✔ Reduced engine power and poor acceleration
- ✔ Check Engine Light (CEL) illumination with codes like P069E, P0230, or U0109
- ✔ Inconsistent fuel pressure readings
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
Replacing the FPCM is a job most DIYers can handle with basic tools. On most GM trucks and SUVs, it’s located on the driver’s side frame rail or a rear crossmember. Always consult a service manual for your specific vehicle’s location.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: Find the old FPCM. It’s a small, black plastic box with electrical connectors, typically mounted to the frame.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors. Note their orientation. Then, unbolt the module from the frame. These bolts can be rusty, so a little penetrating oil can help.
- Install the New Module: Bolt your new, pre-programmed FPCM into place. Reconnect the electrical connectors securely.
- Final Step: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. The vehicle is now ready to start with no further programming required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to provide my VIN?
Your vehicle’s VIN is required so we can load the exact, correct GM software for your specific model, year, and options. This ensures perfect compatibility and function right out of the box, eliminating the need for a dealership visit.
Is this part difficult to install?
No, this is a straightforward replacement. It typically involves unbolting the old module from the vehicle’s frame, unplugging it, and plugging in the new one. Because it comes pre-programmed, no special electronic tools are needed.
Where is the Fuel Pump Control Module located on my 2009 GMC Canyon?
On the 2009 GMC Canyon and Chevy Colorado, the FPCM is typically mounted on a crossmember of the frame, near the spare tire. It’s positioned there to be close to the fuel tank and pump assembly.
What makes this better than a used part from a junkyard?
A used module will not be programmed for your vehicle and will likely require dealer flashing. More importantly, these modules are a common failure point due to their exposure to the elements. A used part carries the same risk of failure as your old one. Our module is a reliable component loaded with the newest software.
Will this fix my P069E check engine light code?
Yes, the P069E code is one of the most common diagnostic trouble codes indicating a fault within the Fuel Pump Control Module. Replacing a faulty FPCM with this pre-programmed unit is the correct repair for that code.
