Is Your GM Vehicle Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
If your 2009 Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, Cadillac Escalade, or another GM truck or SUV is suddenly experiencing issues like engine stalling, hesitation during acceleration, an extended crank time, or a complete no-start condition, a failing Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM) is a highly probable cause. This critical component, also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM), is responsible for precisely managing the voltage sent to your fuel pump. When it fails, it can leave you stranded without warning, often accompanied by diagnostic trouble codes such as P069E, P025A, or U0109.
Don’t let a faulty module disrupt your life. This is a direct-fit, genuine GM Fuel Pump Control Module (part number 25866052) that arrives at your door fully programmed to your vehicle’s specific Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This eliminates the most significant hurdle in this repair: the expensive and inconvenient trip to a dealership for programming. We handle the complex part, so you can get back to driving.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We recently had a 2008 Silverado 1500 towed in with a classic ‘crank-no-start’ condition. The owner had already replaced the in-tank fuel pump himself, assuming it was the problem, but the truck still wouldn’t fire up. After a quick scan, we found code P069E – ‘Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded OFF’. Instead of diving back into the fuel tank, we went straight to the FPCM mounted on the driver’s side frame rail. It was heavily corroded from years of exposure to road salt and moisture. We installed one of our pre-programmed modules, and the truck started instantly. The customer could have saved hundreds of dollars and a full weekend of frustration by diagnosing the FPCM first—a common failure point on these GM platforms.
Diagnosing a Failing 2009 Traverse Fuel Pump Module
The FPCM is a small computer that regulates fuel pressure with much greater precision than old-style relay systems. This efficiency is great for performance and economy, but it also introduces a new point of failure. Because these modules are often mounted on the vehicle’s frame, they are exposed to harsh conditions that can lead to internal circuit failure. If you’re experiencing any of the following, your FPCM may be at fault.
Common Symptoms of FPCM Failure
- ✔ Engine stalls unexpectedly while driving, especially at low speeds.
- ✔ Vehicle cranks but will not start.
- ✔ Intermittent starting problems.
- ✔ Reduced engine power and poor acceleration.
- ✔ Check Engine Light is on with codes P069E, P025A, or U0109.
- ✔ A noticeable whining sound from the fuel pump or no sound at all.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to get this module programmed by a dealer?
No. The main benefit of our service is that we program the module for you before it ships. Using the VIN you provide, we load the correct GM software and calibration files. This makes the module a true plug-and-play solution, saving you time and the high cost of dealership programming.
Where is the FPCM located on my vehicle?
The location varies by model. On the 2009 Traverse, Acadia, and Enclave, it’s typically found on the rear crossmember. For most trucks and full-size SUVs like the Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe, and Escalade, it’s mounted to the driver’s side frame rail, usually near the spare tire.
What is a VIN and why do you need it for programming?
The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is your car’s unique 17-digit serial number. It contains specific information about your vehicle’s make, model, year, engine, and factory-installed options. We use this data to download the exact software calibration file from GM’s database, ensuring the module communicates perfectly with your vehicle’s other computers.
Will this part fix a P069E trouble code?
A P069E code (‘Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded OFF’) is one of the most common indicators of a failed FPCM. While this module is the solution in the vast majority of cases, it’s always best practice to confirm the diagnosis by checking for power and ground at the module connector. However, if you have this code along with a no-start or stalling condition, a faulty FPCM is the most likely culprit.
Is this a new or used part?
This is a high-quality, tested original equipment (OE) part. We source genuine GM modules to ensure perfect fitment and long-term reliability. Each module is inspected and verified to be fully functional before being programmed and shipped.
