Is Your GM Truck or SUV Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
If you’re dealing with frustrating engine performance issues like stalling at red lights, a long crank time, or a complete no-start situation, a failing Fuel System Control Module (FSCM) is a very likely culprit. On many 2010-2012 GM vehicles, this critical component is mounted on the frame rail, exposed to years of road salt, water, and vibration, which leads to internal failure and leaves you stranded. You might also have a check engine light with codes like P069E, U0109, or P0230, all pointing directly to this module.
Real-World Diagnosis from the Shop Floor
“A customer’s 2011 Silverado came in last week on a tow truck with a classic no-start symptom. He had already spent hundreds replacing the in-tank fuel pump himself, assuming it was the problem. When it still wouldn’t start, he brought it to us. A quick scan showed code P069E – Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded OFF. We checked the new pump’s resistance (it was fine), then inspected the FSCM on the frame rail. The housing was corroded and the connector pins were green. We replaced it with one of our pre-programmed modules, and the truck fired right up. He could have saved himself a weekend of frustration and the cost of a fuel pump by diagnosing the FSCM first.”
