Is Your GM Truck or SUV Suddenly Stalling or Refusing to Start?
You’re driving your 2011 Sierra 1500, and suddenly the engine sputters and dies at a stoplight. Or maybe your 2012 Tahoe cranks but won’t fire up in the morning. You might be seeing a check engine light with the dreaded P069E code. In my 20+ years as a diagnostician, I’ve seen this exact scenario hundreds of times. Many owners immediately suspect the fuel pump, spend a fortune replacing it, only to have the exact same problem persist. The real culprit is often this small but critical component: the Fuel System Control Module (FSCM).
From the Shop Floor: A Common, Costly Misdiagnosis
A customer’s 2010 Cadillac CTS came in last week with these exact symptomsโintermittent stalling and a P069E code stored in the computer. They had already paid another shop to replace the in-tank fuel pump, but the issue remained. The problem wasn’t the pump itself, but the module that tells it what to do. On many of these GM vehicles, the FSCM is mounted to the frame rail, exposed to water, salt, and road debris. Over time, this leads to internal corrosion and failure, leaving your fuel pump without its marching orders. This 2010-2012 Fuel Module is the direct, reliable fix for that failure.

Plug-and-Play Installation: Get Back on the Road Fast
Installing your new 2010-2012 Fuel Module is a straightforward process you can do in your own driveway. While the exact location varies (check your specific model), it’s typically found on the driver-side frame rail or near the rear crossmember.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
- Locate the Module: Find the old FSCM. On trucks and SUVs, it’s often a small silver box bolted to the frame.
- Disconnect and Remove: Unplug the electrical connector and unbolt the module from its mounting point.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed module in place and securely plug in the electrical connector.
- Reconnect and Start: Reconnect the battery terminal, turn the key, and enjoy a vehicle that starts and runs reliably again.
Expert Pro Tip: Check the Connector Pigtail
Before you install the new module, take a close look at the vehicle’s wiring harness connector. Because of the module’s exposed location, moisture often gets into the connector, causing green corrosion on the pins and wires. If you see any signs of corrosion, it’s critical to clean the terminals thoroughly or replace the connector pigtail. Plugging a new module into a corroded connector is the #1 reason for a repeat failure.
