Is Your GM Truck or SUV Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
If you’re dealing with frustrating engine problems like cranking but no start, sudden stalling, hesitation under acceleration, or a ‘Reduced Engine Power’ message, the culprit is often a faulty Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM). Located on the frame rail, this critical component is exposed to harsh road conditions, leading to corrosion and electronic failure. This interrupts the signal to your fuel pump, starving your engine of the fuel it needs to run properly.

Before we ship it, our technicians will program the module with the latest GM software updates, perfectly matched to your vehicle’s specific VIN. This means it arrives at your door ready for a true plug-and-play installation. You get a reliable fix without the need for specialized scan tools or a trip to the service bay.
A Real-World Scenario from My Shop
“Just last month, a 2008 Silverado 1500 was towed in. The owner had already spent a weekend replacing the in-tank fuel pump, convinced it was the problem. The truck would crank strong but wouldn’t fire up. A quick scan showed a P069E codeโa classic sign of an FPCM communication fault. We checked the old module on the frame rail; it was heavily corroded. Instead of towing it to the dealer for programming, we installed one of our pre-flashed modules. The truck fired up on the first try. The customer could have saved himself a weekend of work and the cost of a fuel pump by diagnosing the FPCM first.”

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How do I know if my Fuel Pump Control Module is failing?
A: Common symptoms include the engine cranking but not starting, stalling while driving, poor acceleration, and the ‘Reduced Engine Power’ light. You may also find diagnostic codes like P069E stored in the computer.
Q: What does ‘VIN Programmed’ mean?
A: It means we use your vehicle’s unique VIN to load the correct factory software and calibrations onto the module before we send it to you. This makes the part work perfectly with your truck’s specific systems without needing a dealer’s help.
Q: Can I install this myself?
A: Absolutely. Because the module comes pre-programmed, installation is a simple unbolt/unplug and bolt-in/plug-in process. It’s a very popular repair for DIY mechanics.
Q: Is this different from the fuel pump?
A: Yes. The FPCM is the computer that tells the fuel pump (located in the fuel tank) how fast to run. It’s very common for this module to fail, while the fuel pump itself is still good.
Q: Where is the FPCM located on my 2008 Silverado?
A: On most GM trucks and large SUVs from this era, like the Silverado, Sierra, and Tahoe, you will find the FPCM mounted on the inside of the driver-side frame rail, usually above or just in front of the spare tire.
