Is Your Captiva Sport Stalling, Cranking Endlessly, or Refusing to Start?
As a technician with over two decades of experience, one of the most common and frustrating issues I see on modern GM vehicles is a sudden fuel delivery problem. Your 2012 Captiva Sport might run perfectly one minute and then leave you stranded the next. Often, the culprit isn’t the fuel pump itself, but the small computer that controls it: the Fuel System Control Module (FSCM). When this module fails, it can throw a P069E trouble code, cause erratic fuel pressure, and lead to symptoms that can be easily misdiagnosed.
The Dealership-Free Solution: A True Plug-and-Play FSCM
Don’t waste time and money towing your vehicle to a dealer just for a simple programming procedure. We take the hassle out of the repair. This is a genuine OEM Fuel System Control Module that we program with the latest GM-certified software specifically for your vehicle’s VIN. When it arrives at your door, it’s ready for a straightforward installation, restoring proper function without any additional steps.
From the Shop Floor: A Real-World Scenario
“A customer’s 2011 Silverado came in with a P069E code. They’d already replaced the FSCM once from a junkyard, but the problem returned within a week. A quick look at the main connector showed faint green corrosion deep inside the pins, causing an intermittent connection. We replaced the connector pigtail along with our programmed module, and the problem was solved for good. Before you install your new module, always take 30 seconds to inspect the harness connector for any signs of water intrusion or corrosion. It’s a simple check that can save you from a repeat failure.”

- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: Access the rear driver’s side cargo area. You may need to remove a trim panel to expose the module.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connector(s) from the old FSCM. Then, unbolt the module from its mounting bracket.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed FSCM into place and securely reconnect the electrical harness. Ensure the connector clicks into place.
- Final Steps: Re-install any trim panels you removed and reconnect the negative battery terminal. The vehicle is now ready to start.
