Restore Your Truck’s Performance and Reliability
Is your 2009 Chevrolet Colorado or other GM truck experiencing frustrating and unpredictable issues like stalling, hesitation, or a complete no-start condition? The problem often points directly to a failing Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM). Located on the frame, these modules are constantly exposed to harsh road conditions, leading to internal failures that disrupt fuel pressure and engine performance. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a critical reliability issue that can leave you stranded. We offer a dependable, straightforward solution.
This FPCM is the definitive fix for these common ailments. What sets our module apart is the essential pre-programming service. Before we ship it, we flash the module with the latest official GM software, tailored specifically to your vehicle’s VIN. This means you receive a true plug-and-play part, eliminating the need for an expensive and time-consuming trip to the dealership for programming. Simply install it, and you’re ready to go. Restore your vehicle’s proper fuel delivery and peace of mind with a part designed to get you back on the road safely.
Case Study: A Tricky Diagnosis
I had a 2008 Sierra 1500 towed into my bay last month. The customer had already replaced the fuel pump himself, but the truck still wouldn’t start consistently and kept throwing a P069E code (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination). He was convinced the new pump was bad. After checking fuel pressure, which was erratic, I went straight for the FPCM on the driver-side frame rail. It showed classic signs of water intrusion at the connector. We installed one of our pre-programmed modules, cleared the codes, and the truck fired up instantly with stable fuel pressure. It’s a textbook example of how a faulty 2009 Colorado Fuel Pump Module or its equivalent on other GM trucks can mimic a bad fuel pump, saving the customer hundreds in misdiagnosis.
Is Your Truck Showing These Symptoms?
A failing FPCM can manifest in several ways. If you’re noticing any of the following, this module is the likely solution:
- âś” Engine cranks but will not start
- âś” Vehicle stalls unexpectedly, especially under load
- âś” Severe engine hesitation or stumbling during acceleration
- âś” “Reduced Engine Power” message on the dash
- âś” Check Engine Light with codes like P069E, P0230, P2635, or U0109
- âś” A buzzing or whining noise from the fuel pump that is inconsistent
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
One of the biggest benefits of this module is its simple, DIY-friendly installation. Since it comes pre-programmed, you won’t need any special scan tools. For a 2009 Colorado or Canyon, the module is typically on the rear center frame crossmember.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: Find the old FPCM. On most full-size trucks and SUVs, it’s on the inside of the driver-side frame rail, near the spare tire. On Colorado/Canyon models, check the rear center frame.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors. Be gentle to avoid breaking the locking tabs. Then, remove the bolts holding the module to the frame.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new FPCM into the same location. Ensure it is securely mounted.
- Reconnect: Plug the electrical connectors firmly into the new module. You should hear a ‘click’ as they lock in place.
- Final Step: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start the vehicle to confirm the repair.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to get this module programmed by a dealer?
No. We program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before shipping it to you. It arrives ready for installation, saving you time and money.
Where is the FPCM located on my 2009 Colorado?
On the 2009 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, the Fuel Pump Control Module is typically mounted to the rear center frame crossmember, near the spare tire.
What information do you need from me?
After you place your order, you will need to provide us with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This is essential for us to load the correct GM software for your specific vehicle.
Is this the same as the fuel pump?
No. This is the electronic control module that regulates the voltage sent to the in-tank fuel pump. The fuel pump is a separate component located inside your fuel tank. This module often fails before the pump does.
Will this fix a P069E check engine light code?
Yes, in the vast majority of cases, a faulty FPCM is the direct cause of a P069E code on these GM trucks and SUVs. Replacing it with this pre-programmed unit is the standard, effective repair.
