Restore Your Yukon’s Performance and Reliability
Is your 2013-2014 GMC Yukon experiencing frustrating issues like stalling, hesitation during acceleration, or a dreaded no-start condition? Before you consider replacing the entire fuel pump—a costly and labor-intensive job—the culprit is often a faulty Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM). In my 20+ years as a diagnostic technician, I’ve seen countless cases where this small but critical component fails, leading to inconsistent fuel pressure and a host of engine performance problems. This module, also known as a Fuel System Control Module (FSCM), is the brain behind your fuel delivery system, and when it goes bad, your truck simply won’t run right.
We offer a dependable and straightforward solution. This is a genuine OEM Fuel Pump Control Module (part number 20964304) that comes fully programmed with the latest GM software updates specifically for your vehicle. Simply provide us with your VIN during checkout, and our experts will flash the module before it ships. This means no expensive trips to the dealership for programming, saving you time and money. You get a part that’s ready to install right out of the box, restoring proper fuel command and getting your truck back to peak performance.
From the Diagnostic Bay: The Intermittent Stall Case
A customer brought in a 2014 Yukon XL that would randomly stall at stoplights. There were no consistent trouble codes, just an occasional P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination). They had already replaced the fuel pump assembly, but the problem persisted. After hooking up my scan tool and monitoring fuel pressure command vs. actual pressure, I saw the FPCM was erratically dropping the voltage to the pump. The module itself, exposed to heat and vibration on the frame rail, had developed an internal fault. Replacing the module with a properly programmed unit like this one solved the problem instantly. It’s a classic example of why you should always check the 2013-2014 Yukon Fuel Pump Module before condemning the pump itself.
Symptoms Your Fuel Pump Module is Failing
A failing FPCM can mimic other fuel system problems. If you’re noticing any of these signs, this module is a likely cause. Look out for these common indicators:
- ✔ Engine cranks but refuses to start
- ✔ Stalling, especially when the engine is warm or under load
- ✔ Rough idling or engine hesitation
- ✔ Reduced power and poor acceleration
- ✔ A noticeable decrease in fuel economy
- ✔ Check Engine Light with codes like P069E, U0109, or P0230
Your Straightforward Installation Guide
Installing your new 2013-2014 Yukon Fuel Pump Module is a manageable job for a DIYer with basic tools. On most GM trucks and SUVs, you’ll find it mounted on the driver’s side frame rail, near the spare tire.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery to prevent any electrical shorts.
- Locate the Module: Find the old FPCM on the inside of the driver-side frame rail. It’s a small black box with electrical connectors.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors. Note their orientation. Then, unbolt the module from the frame. These bolts can sometimes be rusty, so a little penetrating oil might help.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed module into the same location. Ensure it’s securely fastened.
- Reconnect: Plug the electrical connectors firmly into the new module. You should hear a click as they seat.
- Final Step: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start the vehicle to confirm the repair is complete and the engine runs smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you need my VIN?
Your VIN is essential for us to program the module with the exact software and calibrations your vehicle requires from the factory. This ensures 100% compatibility and prevents communication errors with your vehicle’s other computers.
Is this part difficult to install?
For most trucks and SUVs, installation is straightforward. The module is typically mounted on the frame rail and requires only basic hand tools to replace. Since it comes pre-programmed, no special electronic tools are needed.
Will this fix my P069E trouble code?
Yes, a P069E code is one of the most common indicators of a failed FPCM. Replacing your old module with this pre-programmed unit is the correct and reliable fix for that specific diagnostic trouble code.
What is the difference between an FPCM and a fuel pump?
The fuel pump is a mechanical device inside your gas tank that moves fuel. The FPCM is the electronic ‘brain’ that tells the fuel pump how fast to run based on engine demand. A bad FPCM can make a good fuel pump seem faulty.
Is this module compatible with part number 20964305?
Yes, this module 20964304 is fully compatible and serves as a direct replacement for part number 20964305.
