Is your 2009 Buick Enclave suddenly stalling, hesitating on acceleration, or refusing to start? Before you condemn the fuel pump, the real culprit is often the Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM). As a technician with over 20 years of experience, I’ve seen countless drivers spend a fortune on a new fuel pump only to find the problem persists. This module is the brain behind your fuel delivery, and when it fails, it starves your engine of the fuel it needs to run smoothly and reliably.
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). When it arrives at your door, it’s loaded with the latest GM factory software updates, ensuring optimal performance and communication with your vehicle’s computer. You get a reliable fix without the expensive trip to the dealership for programming.
Case Study: A Tricky Diagnosis
A customer brought in their ’09 Acadia (which uses the same system as your Enclave) with a classic intermittent stall. It would die at stoplights and hesitate badly when merging. They were convinced the fuel pump was bad. I hooked up my scan tool and saw DTC P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded On) stored in memory. Instead of jumping to the pump, I checked the FPCM, which is mounted on the frame rail. It showed signs of corrosion and water intrusion—a common failure point. We replaced it with a VIN-programmed module like this one, and the vehicle ran perfectly. A simple module swap saved them over $600 on an unnecessary fuel pump job.
Is Your Enclave Showing These Telltale Signs?
A failing FPCM can mimic a bad fuel pump. Watch for these common indicators:
- ✔ Engine cranks but won’t start
- ✔ Vehicle stalls unexpectedly, especially when warm
- ✔ Stuttering or hesitation during acceleration
- ✔ “Reduced Engine Power” message on the dash
- ✔ A noticeable whining sound from the fuel pump area
- ✔ Check Engine Light with codes like P069E, P0230, or U0100
The Power of a Pre-Programmed Solution
The single biggest advantage of this 2009 Enclave Fuel Pump Module is the professional VIN-programming included with your purchase. Normally, replacing an FPCM requires specialized tools like a GM MDI and a subscription to their software service—costs that repair shops pass on to you. We handle all of that for you. Simply provide your VIN during checkout, and our experts will flash the module with the correct, updated software for your specific vehicle. This ensures it works seamlessly right out of the box, restoring factory performance and fuel efficiency.
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
This is a repair many DIYers can handle in their own driveway. With the programming done, it’s a true plug-and-play installation.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: On the 2009 Enclave, the FPCM is typically mounted to the rear subframe or a nearby crossmember. You’ll need to safely raise the vehicle to access it.
- Disconnect and Remove: Unplug the electrical connectors. Be gentle with the locking tabs. Then, unbolt the old module from its mounting bracket.
- Install the New Module: Bolt your new, pre-programmed FPCM into place. Reconnect the electrical connectors, making sure they click securely.
- Final Steps: Lower the vehicle and reconnect the battery terminal. Turn the key to the ‘On’ position for 10 seconds before starting the engine to allow the system to prime.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you need my VIN?
Your VIN allows us to load the exact GM software calibration for your vehicle’s specific options. This is critical for proper function and prevents compatibility issues, making the installation truly plug-and-play.
Is this difficult to install myself?
For most DIYers with basic tools, this is a straightforward job. Since the programming is done beforehand, it’s a simple unbolt-and-replace process. The main challenge is safely accessing the module, which is typically on the vehicle’s frame.
Where is the FPCM located on my 2009 Enclave?
On the Buick Enclave and its sister vehicles (Acadia, Traverse), the module is generally mounted to the rear subframe or a crossmember near the fuel tank. A quick search for your specific model will often yield diagrams or videos showing the exact location.
Will this fix a Check Engine Light with code P069E?
Yes, P069E is one of the most common diagnostic trouble codes pointing directly to a faulty Fuel Pump Control Module. Replacing the module with this pre-programmed unit is the correct and most effective repair for that code.
What if my original part number isn’t 25785013?
This module is a direct replacement for several part numbers, including 13501024, 20759945, and others listed above. As long as your vehicle is on the compatibility list, this module will work perfectly.
