Restore Your Truck’s Performance and Reliability
Is your 2009 Chevrolet Colorado or other GM truck experiencing frustrating and potentially dangerous issues like stalling, hesitation under acceleration, or a crank-no-start condition? Before you condemn the fuel pump, the culprit is often the Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM). This critical component regulates the voltage sent to your fuel pump, and when it fails, it can leave you stranded. In my 20+ years of diagnostics, I’ve seen countless cases where a simple FPCM replacement solved complex fuel delivery problems that had other mechanics stumped.
This is a direct-fit replacement for part number 25854536 and other compatible numbers, but with a crucial advantage: we program it specifically for your vehicle using your VIN. This means it arrives at your door with the latest GM software updates already installed, making it a true plug-and-play solution. You get to skip the expensive trip to the dealership for programming, saving you both time and hundreds of dollars in labor and service fees. Restore proper fuel pressure and get your truck running like new again with a reliable, ready-to-install module.
Case Study: A Tricky Diagnosis
A customer brought in a 2009 Sierra 1500 that would randomly stall at red lights and occasionally refuse to start after being driven. He had already replaced the fuel pump, but the problem persisted. A scan showed an intermittent P069E code (Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded OFF). Instead of just throwing more parts at it, we inspected the FPCM located on the driver-side frame rail. These modules are notorious for failing due to exposure to water, salt, and vibration. A new, properly programmed FPCM solved the issue completely. This highlights why addressing the FPCM first can save you the cost and labor of replacing a perfectly good fuel pump.
Is Your Truck Exhibiting These Symptoms?
A failing FPCM can manifest in several ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is the likely solution for your 2009 Colorado Fuel Pump Module needs and other compatible vehicles:
- ✔ Engine cranks but will not start
- ✔ Stalling while driving, especially when coming to a stop
- ✔ Severe engine hesitation or sputtering during acceleration
- ✔ Reduced engine power and poor fuel economy
- ✔ Check Engine Light with codes like P069E, P0230, U0100, or P0627
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
Replacing the FPCM is a job most DIYers can handle with basic hand tools. For the 2009 Colorado, it’s typically located 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 trucks and SUVs, it’s mounted to the frame rail on the driver’s side, near the spare tire. On the Colorado/Canyon, check the rear center frame.
- Disconnect and Remove: Unplug the electrical connectors. Be gentle with the locking tabs, as they can become brittle. Then, unbolt the module from the frame.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed FPCM into place. Ensure it’s securely fastened to prevent vibration damage.
- 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. No further programming is required!
