Restore Your Vehicle’s Performance and Reliability
Is your 2010 Chevrolet Equinox, Camaro, or GMC Terrain suffering from frustrating and unpredictable engine problems? Symptoms like stalling at intersections, extended cranking before the engine starts, or a sudden loss of power can be more than just an annoyance—they can be a serious safety concern. Often, the root cause isn’t the fuel pump itself, but its electronic brain: the Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM).
As a technician with over two decades of experience, I’ve seen countless drivers replace their fuel pumps only to find the problem persists. The issue frequently lies with a failed FPCM. This module is critical for regulating the voltage sent to the fuel pump, ensuring your engine receives the precise amount of fuel it needs under all driving conditions. When it fails, fuel delivery becomes erratic, leading to the performance issues you’re experiencing. This is the definitive solution to get your vehicle running smoothly and reliably again.
Case Study: A Tricky Diagnosis
A customer brought in their 2010 Equinox with a complaint that stumped two other shops: intermittent stalling in stop-and-go traffic. They had already replaced the fuel pump, but the issue remained. Hooking up my diagnostic scanner, I monitored the fuel pump command data and saw the requested pressure was correct, but the actual pressure would suddenly drop off, causing the stall. There were no hard codes, just a pending P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination). This pointed directly to the FPCM failing under load. We installed a VIN-programmed 2010 Equinox Fuel Module, and the problem was solved instantly. This saved the customer from further guesswork and unnecessary expenses.
