Is Your GM Truck or SUV Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
If you’re dealing with frustrating engine performance issues like stalling, a long crank time, or a complete no-start condition, a failing Fuel System Control Module (FSCM) is a very common culprit. Many owners see diagnostic trouble codes like P069E, P0230, or P064A, all pointing to a problem with the fuel pump control circuit. Before you spend a fortune replacing the entire fuel pump, consider its electronic brain: the FSCM.
From the Shop Floor: A Real-World Diagnosis
“Just last month, a 2011 Silverado 1500 was towed to my shop. The owner had already replaced the fuel pump himself, but the truck still wouldn’t start. His scanner showed a P069E code. On many of these GM trucks and SUVs, the FSCM is mounted directly to the driver-side frame rail, exposed to water, salt, and road debris. I put the truck on the lift, and sure enough, the module’s casing was corroded and the connector pins were green. We installed one of our pre-programmed modules, and the truck fired right up. It’s a 20-minute fix that often gets misdiagnosed as a bad fuel pump.”

Is This the Right GM Fuel Control Module For You?

Please use the detailed fitment list to confirm your specific model and year. Note that in many parts catalogs, this component is listed under “Fuel Pump,” but it is the separate electronic control module, not the in-tank pump assembly.
Plug-and-Play Installation: No Dealer Visit Required
Installing your new module is a straightforward process that most DIYers can complete with basic hand tools. While the exact location varies, it’s often on the driver’s side frame rail or inside a rear compartment.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Module: Find the old FSCM. On trucks, it’s typically mounted to the outside of the frame rail near the spare tire. On cars and SUVs, it may be in the trunk or a rear quarter panel area.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connector. Use a small screwdriver to release the locking tab if necessary. Then, unbolt the module from its mounting point.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed module in place. Securely plug in the electrical connector until it clicks.
- Final Step: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start the vehicle and confirm the issue is resolved.
