Is Your GM Truck or SUV Stalling, Sputtering, or Refusing to Start?
As a mechanic with over two decades of experience, I’ve seen it countless times. A customer’s otherwise reliable Silverado, Tahoe, or Acadia suddenly develops a mind of its ownโit hesitates on acceleration, stalls at a stoplight, or worse, leaves them stranded with a no-start condition. Often, the Check Engine Light is on, showing codes like P069E, P0230, or P025A. The culprit is frequently a failing Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), and this is the definitive solution.
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a complete, ready-to-install fix. We take a genuine GM module and professionally program it with the very latest vehicle-specific software from General Motors. All we need is your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) during checkout. This critical step ensures perfect communication between the module and your vehicle’s computer, restoring proper fuel pressure and engine performance without a mandatory, expensive trip to the dealership for programming.
A Real-World Scenario from My Shop
“A customer brought in his ’08 Sierra 1500 last month. It would crank but not start, and he had already spent a small fortune replacing the in-tank fuel pump himself, assuming that was the issue. The problem persisted. When I hooked up my diagnostic scanner, I saw code P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded OFF). Instead of a bad pump, the FPCM itself wasn’t sending the correct voltage. We installed one of these pre-programmed modules, and the truck fired right up. He could have saved himself a weekend of frustration and the cost of a new pump by diagnosing the FPCM first.”
Why Choose a Pre-Programmed Module?
A new FPCM from the dealer is just a metal box. It requires specialized tools like a GM MDI or Tech 2 and a paid subscription to their software service to make it work. Our service eliminates that entire process. You receive a part that is truly plug-and-play.

Easy Installation Guide for the 2009 Acadia Fuel Pump Control Module
For most of the compatible trucks and SUVs, this module is located on the driver’s side frame rail, making it accessible for a confident DIYer. For vehicles like the Acadia or Traverse, it’s typically on a rear crossmember.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: Find the old FPCM. On most GM trucks, it’s mounted to the outside of the frame rail, just in front of the spare tire. It’s a small silver box with an electrical connector.
- Disconnect and Remove: Unplug the electrical harness. Be sure to press the release tab firmly. Then, remove the bolts or nuts (typically two) holding the module to the frame.
- Clean the Mounting Surface: Use a wire brush to clean any rust or corrosion from the frame where the module mounts. A clean ground connection is critical for proper function.
- Install the New Module: Bolt your new, pre-programmed FPCM into place and securely reconnect the electrical connector.
- Reconnect Battery: Reattach the negative battery terminal. The installation is complete!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How do I know if my Fuel Pump Control Module is failing?
A: Common symptoms include the engine cranking but not starting, stalling, hesitation during acceleration, a loud fuel pump, and a Check Engine Light with codes like P069E. These signs indicate the module isn’t properly regulating power to the fuel pump.
Q: Is this part difficult to install myself?
A: For most people with basic hand tools, this is a straightforward repair. The module is typically mounted on the vehicle’s frame rail and is easy to access. Our pre-programming makes the electrical part of the job simple plug-and-play.
Q: What happens if I install a module that isn’t programmed?
A: An unprogrammed module will not work correctly. Your vehicle will likely not start, and you will need to have it towed to a dealership or a shop with advanced programming capabilities, adding significant cost and hassle to the repair.
Q: How do I provide my VIN for programming?
A: After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your order until we receive this information, as it’s required for the programming service.
Q: Will this fix my P069E code?
A: Yes, in the vast majority of cases, a faulty FPCM is the root cause of a P069E trouble code. Replacing it with this correctly programmed unit is the proper fix.
