Is your truck stalling, hesitating, or refusing to start? Don’t let a faulty Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM) leave you stranded. As a technician with over two decades of experience, I’ve seen countless GM trucks and SUVs sidelined by this exact issue. This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a reliable, pre-programmed solution designed to restore your vehicle’s performance and your peace of mind. We take the guesswork and dealer-level hassle out of the repair by flashing this module with the latest GM software, specifically matched to your vehicle’s VIN.
The FPCM, or Fuel System Control Module (FSCM), is the brain behind your fuel pump. It regulates the voltage sent to the pump, ensuring your engine gets the precise amount of fuel it needs under all conditions. When it fails, you’ll experience frustrating and unpredictable symptoms. This module is a direct-fit replacement for part number 25967325 and other compatible numbers listed below, solving those issues for good.
Common Signs of a Failing FPCM
- ✔ Engine cranks but won’t start
- ✔ Stalling, especially under load or when coming to a stop
- ✔ Rough idle and engine sputtering
- ✔ Loss of power and poor acceleration
- ✔ Check Engine Light with codes like P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination), P0230 (Fuel Pump Primary Circuit Malfunction), or U0109 (Lost Communication With Fuel Pump Control Module)
Case Study: A Tricky Diagnosis
A 2009 Chevy Colorado came into my shop with a classic intermittent no-start condition. The owner had already replaced the fuel pump, but the problem persisted. On these trucks, the FPCM is mounted to the rear center frame crossmember, exposed to road salt, water, and vibration. A quick visual inspection showed heavy corrosion on the module’s casing and connector pins. After confirming power and ground, a scan tool showed lost communication with the FPCM. We installed a new, VIN-programmed module, and the truck fired right up. It’s a common failure point that is often misdiagnosed as a bad fuel pump, costing owners time and money.
The most significant benefit here is our complimentary programming service. Normally, replacing this module requires a trip to the dealership for expensive software flashing with a Tech 2 or MDI scan tool. We eliminate that step completely. Simply provide us with your VIN during checkout, and we’ll handle the programming. Your new 2009 Colorado Fuel Pump Module will arrive at your door ready for a simple, plug-and-play installation.
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
- ✔ Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- ✔ Locate the Module: On the 2009 Colorado and Canyon, the FPCM is typically mounted on the rear frame crossmember, often near the spare tire. On other GM trucks and SUVs, it’s usually on the left-hand (driver’s side) frame rail.
- ✔ Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connector. Be gentle, as the locking tab can be brittle. Then, remove the bolts or nuts securing the old module to the frame.
- ✔ Install the New Module: Mount your new, pre-programmed FPCM in the same location. Secure it with the original hardware.
- ✔ Reconnect: Plug the electrical connector firmly into the new module until it clicks. Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
- ✔ Final Check: Turn the key to the ‘On’ position for a few seconds to prime the fuel system, then start the engine. The vehicle should now run smoothly.
By purchasing this pre-programmed 2009 Colorado Fuel Pump Module, you’re not just buying a part; you’re getting a complete, hassle-free repair solution that saves you a costly trip to the service center.

Why do I need to provide my VIN?
Why do I need to provide my VIN?
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 (like the ECM) and guarantees proper fuel system operation without any additional programming fees.
Is this part difficult to install myself?
No, this is a great DIY-friendly repair. Because the module comes pre-programmed, the installation is a simple bolt-off, bolt-on process. It requires basic hand tools and can typically be completed in under an hour. Just locate the old module on your vehicle’s frame, swap it with this new one, and you’re done.
Will this fix a P069E code?
Yes, a faulty Fuel Pump Control Module is the most common cause of a P069E diagnostic trouble code. This code indicates that the FPCM itself has detected an internal error and has requested the Check Engine Light to be turned on. Replacing the module with this pre-programmed unit is the correct repair for this code.
What’s the difference between an FPCM and a fuel pump?
The fuel pump is a mechanical device inside your gas tank that physically pumps fuel. The FPCM (Fuel Pump Control Module) is an electronic computer that tells the fuel pump how fast to run. They work together, but a failure in the FPCM can mimic a bad fuel pump, leading to misdiagnosis.
