Restore Your HUMMER’s Performance and Reliability
Is your 2008-2009 HUMMER H2 experiencing frustrating issues like stalling, hesitation on acceleration, or a dreaded no-start condition? Before you consider replacing the entire fuel pump, the real culprit is often the Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), also known as the fuel pump driver module. In my 20+ years as a technician, I’ve seen countless GM trucks and SUVs with these exact symptoms, and a faulty FPCM is one of the most common causes, especially on vehicles where it’s mounted on the frame rail, exposed to road salt, water, and vibration.
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a complete, ready-to-install solution. We take the hassle and high cost out of the repair by pre-programming this module to your vehicle’s specific Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This means you get the latest GM software updates, which address the original design’s vulnerabilities, ensuring stable fuel pressure and reliable operation. You get a dealer-level fix without the trip to the dealership or the need for expensive scan tools. This is the definitive solution for your 2008-2009 HUMMER H2 Fuel Pump Module needs.
A Technician’s Notebook: The Misdiagnosed Fuel Pump
A customer brought in a 2008 Silverado with a classic complaint: it would crank but not start, and sometimes it would stall while driving. Another shop had already quoted him over $1,000 for a new in-tank fuel pump assembly. On instinct, I bypassed the diagnostic chart and went straight for the FPCM on the driver-side frame rail. It was covered in chalky white corrosion. After a quick check with a test light, I confirmed there was no power being sent to the pump. We installed a new programmed FPCM, and the truck fired right up. The customer saved hundreds of dollars and hours of unnecessary labor. Always check the FPCM first on these vehicles!
Common Signs of a Failing FPCM
- ✔ Engine cranks but will not start
- ✔ Stalling, especially under load or when coming to a stop
- ✔ Hesitation or sputtering during acceleration
- ✔ “Reduced Engine Power” message on the dashboard
- ✔ Check Engine Light with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) like P069E, P0230, or U0109
- ✔ Inconsistent fuel pressure readings
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
- ✔ Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- ✔ Locate the Module: On your HUMMER H2, the FPCM is typically mounted to a crossmember on the driver’s side frame rail, near the spare tire.
- ✔ Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connector. Be gentle, as the locking tab can be brittle. Then, remove the bolts or nuts (usually 2 or 3) securing the old module to the frame.
- ✔ Install the New Module: Mount your new, pre-programmed FPCM in the same location. It’s often a good idea to apply a light coat of dielectric grease to the connector pins to prevent future corrosion.
- ✔ Reconnect and Test: Securely plug in the electrical connector until it clicks. Reconnect the battery terminal. Turn the key to the ‘On’ position for a few seconds to allow the fuel system to prime, then start the engine. The vehicle should start and run smoothly.

Do I need to do any programming myself?
No. This module comes fully programmed to your vehicle’s VIN. It is a true plug-and-play solution, saving you a trip to the dealer.
Where is this module located on my HUMMER H2?
On the 2008-2009 HUMMER H2, the FPCM is located on the left-hand (driver’s side) frame rail, usually near the spare tire area.
Is this part the same as a fuel pump driver module?
Yes, Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM) and Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) are terms used interchangeably for the same component that regulates voltage to the fuel pump.
What happens if I don’t provide my VIN?
We cannot ship the module without your VIN. The programming is essential for the part to function correctly with your vehicle’s specific systems. We will contact you after your purchase to get this information.
Will this fix a P069E trouble code?
Yes, the DTC P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded On) is a very common code indicating a failure of the FPCM. Replacing it with this pre-programmed unit is the correct repair for that code.
