Is Your 2009 Acadia Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
There’s nothing more frustrating than a vehicle that won’t run reliably. If your GMC Acadia, or another compatible GM vehicle, is experiencing sudden stalls, difficulty starting, a rough idle, or has the dreaded ‘Service Fuel System’ message on the dash, the culprit is often a failed Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM). This small but critical component is responsible for managing the voltage sent to your fuel pump, ensuring your engine gets the precise amount of fuel it needs. When it fails, it can leave you stranded without warning.

We offer a direct, reliable solution: a replacement Fuel Pump Control Module, part number 25854536, that arrives at your door fully programmed and ready for installation. Simply provide us with your vehicle’s VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) during checkout, and our technicians will flash the module with the latest GM-certified software specific to your vehicle. This ensures perfect communication between components and restores original performance.
A Real-World Scenario from My Shop
A customer brought in their ’09 Chevy Tahoe last month. It would crank but not start. They had already replaced the fuel pump themselves, assuming it was the problem, but the issue persisted. After a quick scan, I found code P069Eโa classic FPCM error. The original module wasn’t sending the correct voltage. Instead of a complex rewiring job or another expensive pump, the fix was this exact pre-programmed module. We installed it, cleared the codes, and the truck fired right up. Itโs a common misdiagnosis that costs people time and money; always check the FPCM first!

Plug-and-Play Installation: No Dealer Visit Required
Installing your new 2009 Acadia Fuel Pump Control Module is a manageable job for anyone with basic tools. While the exact location varies by model, the process is generally similar.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: On a 2009 Acadia or Traverse, the FPCM is typically found mounted to the rear crossmember. On trucks like the Silverado or Sierra, it’s on the driver’s side frame rail. Always consult a service manual for your specific vehicle’s location.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors. Use a small flathead screwdriver to release the locking tabs if necessary. Then, unbolt the old module from its mounting point.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed module into place. Reconnect the electrical connectors, ensuring they click securely into position.
- Final Steps: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. It’s a good practice to clear any stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) with a scan tool before starting the vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q: How do I know if my FPCM is failing?
- A: Common symptoms include the engine cranking but not starting, stalling while driving, poor acceleration, a ‘Service Fuel System’ warning, and diagnostic trouble codes such as P069E or U0109.
- Q: Do I really need to provide my VIN?
- A: Yes, absolutely. The VIN is essential for us to load the correct GM software for your specific vehicle’s configuration. This step is what makes the module a true plug-and-play solution.
- Q: Is this a difficult part to replace myself?
- A: For most DIYers with basic mechanical skills, this is a straightforward replacement. The main challenge is safely accessing the module, which is typically mounted on the vehicle’s frame or crossmember.
- Q: Will this fix a P069E code?
- A: Yes, code P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination) is one of the most common indicators of a failed FPCM. Replacing the module with this pre-programmed unit is the correct repair for this code.
- Q: What happens if I install it without programming?
- A: An unprogrammed module will not communicate correctly with your vehicle’s other computers, like the ECM. This will result in a no-start condition and set communication error codes. Our pre-programming service eliminates this problem entirely.
