Is Your GM Truck or SUV Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
A faulty Fuel System Control Module (FSCM) is one of the most common causes of frustrating fuel delivery issues in modern GM vehicles. If you’re experiencing a sudden loss of power, an engine that cranks but won’t start, or an illuminated check engine light, your FSCM may have failed. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a critical failure that can leave you stranded. Get your vehicle back to full operational strength with this direct-fit, professionally programmed Fuel System Control Module, a reliable solution designed to restore performance and peace of mind.
Common Symptoms & Your Direct-Fit Solution
A failing FSCM can manifest in several ways, often triggering specific Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). If your scanner is showing codes like P069E, P0230, or P0606, it’s a strong indicator that this module is the culprit. Other common symptoms include:
- Engine stalling, especially under load
- Difficulty starting the engine or a no-start condition
- Reduced engine power and poor acceleration
- An erratic or non-functional fuel gauge
- A persistent check engine light

A Technician’s Tip: The Programming is Everything
Many people buy a used or new FSCM online or from a local parts store, only to find their vehicle still won’t start after installation. That’s because these modules are not interchangeable without vehicle-specific programming. They contain critical software that must match your vehicle’s VIN and options. Our service eliminates this critical, often-overlooked step. By sending you a Programmed Fuel System Control Module 20877116, we’re not just selling you a part; we’re providing a complete, ready-to-go solution that a professional technician would endorse.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming myself?
Absolutely not. The main benefit of our service is that we program the module to your vehicle’s VIN before we ship it. This makes the installation a true plug-and-play process. Just mount the new module, plug in the connector, and you’re done.
How and when do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit VIN. You can typically message it to us through the order details page. We cannot ship your part until we receive the VIN, as the programming is a required step.
Is this the same as a Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM)?
Yes. The terms Fuel System Control Module (FSCM) and Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) are often used interchangeably for this specific GM part. It performs the same function: controlling the voltage and operation of the in-tank fuel pump.
How do I know if my FSCM is really the problem?
While the only way to be 100% certain is with proper diagnostics, common indicators of a failed FSCM include DTC P069E, a no-start condition where you can’t hear the fuel pump prime, and sudden engine stalling. These modules are a very common failure point on these GM platforms.
Where is this module located on my vehicle?
On most trucks and SUVs like the Express, Silverado, and Tahoe, the FSCM is mounted on the driver’s side frame rail, typically above or near the spare tire. It’s exposed to the elements, which is a primary reason for its high failure rate.
