Tired of Your Car Stalling, Sputtering, or Refusing to Start?
There’s nothing more frustrating than turning the key and hearing your engine crank without firing up, or experiencing sudden power loss while driving. These are classic signs of a failing Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM). This component is the brain behind your fuel pump, and when it falters, it can leave you stranded. We have the reliable, permanent solution that gets you back on the road with confidence.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A faulty FPCM can mimic other fuel system problems, but it often presents with a specific set of symptoms. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is the likely culprit:
- Engine cranks but will not start
- Vehicle starts and then immediately stalls
- Hesitation or stumbling during acceleration
- Reduced engine power and poor performance
- Check Engine Light with codes like P069E, P0230, or P0627
Our programmed 22874300 fuel pump control module is the definitive solution. Unlike a generic part from a local store, each module we ship is professionally flashed with the very latest official GM software, tailored specifically to your vehicle’s Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This critical step ensures seamless communication with your car’s other computers, eliminating compatibility issues and guaranteeing a correct, first-time fix.

Expert Insight: Why VIN Programming is Non-Negotiable
In modern GM vehicles, the FPCM doesn’t just send power to the fuel pumpโit’s an intelligent module that communicates constantly with the Engine Control Module (ECM) and Body Control Module (BCM). A used module from a junkyard or a generic ‘one-size-fits-all’ part will have the incorrect software or VIN information stored in it. This mismatch causes communication errors on the vehicle’s data network, leading to a persistent no-start condition and error codes, even with a ‘new’ part. Our VIN programming service isn’t just a convenience; it’s the essential step that makes the repair successful.
Don’t let a small electronic module dictate when and where you can drive. Take control of your repair with a properly programmed 22874300 fuel pump control module. Once you complete your purchase, simply send us your VIN, and we’ll handle the complex programming. We’ll then ship a part that’s ready for immediate installation, getting your vehicleโand your lifeโback to normal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to provide my VIN?
Your vehicle’s VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is required so we can load the exact, correct software and calibration files from GM for your specific make, model, and options. This ensures the programmed 22874300 fuel pump control module works perfectly with your car’s computer system right out of the box.
Is this part difficult to install?
For most listed vehicles, the FPCM is located in the trunk area or behind an inner quarter panel, typically on the right (passenger) side. Installation usually involves removing some trim panels, unplugging the electrical connectors, and unbolting the old module. It is a manageable job for a DIYer with basic tools, but we always recommend consulting a repair manual for your specific vehicle.
Will this fix a P069E code?
Yes, the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P069E, which indicates a “Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination,” is one of the most common codes pointing directly to a failed FPCM. Replacing the module with our pre-programmed unit is the correct and most effective solution for this code.
What happens if I don’t replace a failing FPCM?
A failing FPCM will only get worse over time. Intermittent stalling can become a permanent no-start condition, potentially leaving you stranded in an unsafe or inconvenient location. It can also cause the fuel pump to run inefficiently, potentially shortening its lifespan.
How is this different from a module from a local parts store?
Standard auto parts stores sell ‘blank’ modules. After you buy one, you still need to have it towed to a dealership or a high-end shop with expensive tools to have it programmed to your vehicle. Our service combines the part and the essential programming into one package, saving you time, money, and hassle.
Where is the FPCM located on most of these vehicles?
As noted in the fitment list, the module is most commonly found in the right-hand (passenger side) inner quarter panel. This could be in the trunk area behind the carpet or behind a plastic interior trim panel. For the Camaro, it’s specified as being behind the right-hand door in the quarter panel.
