Is Your Truck or SUV Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
There’s nothing more frustrating than a vehicle you can’t rely on. If your GM truck or SUV is suddenly stalling, struggling to accelerate, or cranking without starting, a failing Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM) is the most common culprit. This vital component regulates the voltage sent to your fuel pump, and when it fails, it starves your engine of the fuel it needs to run properly. Don’t let a small electronic module leave you stranded. Get back on the road with confidence with this direct-fit, pre-programmed solution.
Common Symptoms & Your Direct-Fit Solution
A faulty FPCM can mimic other fuel system problems, but it often triggers specific symptoms and diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is the solution you need:
- Engine cranks but will not start
- Vehicle starts and then immediately stalls
- Hesitation or stumbling during acceleration
- Loss of power, especially under load
- Check Engine Light with codes like P069E, P0230, or P0627
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a complete, ready-to-install fix. We take a brand new 20850907 Programmed Fuel Pump Control Module and flash it with the latest official GM software, tailored specifically to your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. This critical step ensures perfect communication with your vehicle’s computer systems and eliminates the need for an expensive trip to the dealership for programming.

Expert Insight: From the Technician’s Bench
We see these FPCMs fail constantly in the shop, especially on GM trucks and SUVs. The original modules are often mounted on the frame rail, where they are exposed to years of heat, moisture, and vibration. This constant stress leads to internal electronic failure. The most important part of this repair isn’t just replacing the hardware; it’s ensuring it has the most current software. Early software versions had flaws that could contribute to premature failure. By installing our 20850907 Programmed Fuel Pump Control Module with the latest updates, you’re not just fixing the immediate problem—you’re installing a more robust and reliable solution designed to prevent future issues.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to provide my VIN?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) allows us to program the module with the exact software calibration for your specific make, model, engine, and factory options. This ensures seamless communication with your vehicle’s other computers and guarantees proper function right out of the box.
Is this part difficult to install?
For most of the listed vehicles, the FPCM is located on the driver’s side frame rail, near the spare tire. Installation is typically straightforward for someone with basic mechanical skills. It involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors, and removing a few bolts. No special programming tools are required since we handle that for you.
What happens if I don’t replace a failing FPCM?
Continuing to drive with a faulty FPCM can lead to unpredictable stalling, which is a serious safety concern. It can also cause a no-start condition at any time, leaving you stranded. In some cases, it can also put extra strain on the in-tank fuel pump, potentially causing it to fail as well.
Will this fix my P069E check engine light code?
Yes, the DTC P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded On) is one of the most common codes indicating a failed FPCM. Replacing the module with this pre-programmed unit is the correct and definitive repair for this code and related fuel control circuit faults.
How do I provide my VIN after ordering?
After you complete your purchase, simply reply to your order confirmation email with your 17-digit VIN. You can also send it to us through the website’s messaging system with your order number. We cannot ship your part until we receive your VIN.
