Restore Your Truck’s Fuel System and Drive with Confidence
Is your truck stalling, hesitating, or refusing to start? Are you seeing a frustrating “Reduced Engine Power” light on your dash? Before you condemn the fuel pump, the real culprit is often the Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM). As a technician with over two decades of experience, I’ve seen this exact scenario countless times. The FPCM, also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM), is the brain that tells your fuel pump how much pressure to deliver. When it fails, it starves your engine of fuel, leading to a host of performance issues that can leave you stranded.
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a complete solution. We take the guesswork and hassle out of the repair by pre-programming this module specifically for your vehicle using your VIN. This means it arrives at your door with the latest GM software updates, ready for a direct, plug-and-play installation. You get to skip the expensive trip to the dealership for programming, saving you both time and money. This is the definitive fix for a failing 2009 Canyon Fuel Pump Module and many other GM vehicles.
A Technician’s Notebook
I remember a 2008 Silverado that came into the shop on a tow truck. The owner had already replaced the fuel pump himself, but the truck still wouldn’t start. He was frustrated and out of pocket for a part he didn’t need. A quick scan showed DTC U0109 – Lost Communication with Fuel Pump Control Module. We located the FPCM on the driver-side frame rail, and it was heavily corroded from years of exposure to road salt and moisture. We installed a new, pre-programmed module, and the truck fired right up. It’s a classic case where diagnosing the control side of the circuit first saves a lot of unnecessary work.
Is Your GM Truck Showing These Signs?
A failing FPCM can mimic a bad fuel pump. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is the likely solution:
- ✔ Engine cranks but will not start
- ✔ Vehicle stalls unexpectedly, especially under load
- ✔ Hesitation or stumbling during acceleration
- ✔ “Reduced Engine Power” message displayed
- ✔ Check Engine Light with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) such as P069E, P0230, or U0109
- ✔ Inconsistent fuel pressure readings
Straightforward Installation Guide
Installing your new 2009 Canyon Fuel Pump Module is a job most DIYers can handle with basic tools. The location varies slightly by model, but the process is similar.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: On most trucks and SUVs (Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe), it’s on the driver’s side frame rail near the spare tire. On a Canyon/Colorado, it’s typically on a rear frame crossmember. On a Saturn Vue, check the RH rear engine compartment.
- Disconnect and Remove: Unplug the electrical connectors. Be gentle with the locking tabs, as they can become brittle. Then, remove the bolts holding the old module to the frame.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed module into place. Ensure it’s mounted securely.
- Reconnect: Plug the electrical connectors firmly into the new module. You should hear a click.
- Final Step: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start the vehicle to confirm the repair is complete. No further programming is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you need my VIN number?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) allows us to program the module with the exact software and calibrations your vehicle requires from the factory. This ensures perfect communication with your vehicle’s other computers and guarantees a simple, plug-and-play installation without needing a trip to the dealer.
Is this part difficult to install?
Not at all for most people with basic mechanical skills. The module is typically mounted to the vehicle’s frame and held on by a few bolts. The most important part is ensuring the electrical connectors are securely fastened. Our installation guide above provides the key steps.
Will this fix a P069E trouble code?
Yes, the DTC P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination) is one of the most common codes indicating a faulty FPCM. Replacing the module with our pre-programmed unit is the correct and reliable fix for this code.
Is this a new or used part?
This is a high-quality replacement part that is guaranteed to meet or exceed original equipment performance. It is loaded with new, updated software from GM to ensure longevity and reliability.
What happens if I don’t provide my VIN?
We cannot ship the module until we receive your VIN. The programming is essential for the part to function in your vehicle. Please send us your VIN through messaging after your purchase to avoid any delays in shipping.
