Is Your GM Truck or SUV Suddenly Stalling or Refusing to Start?
There’s nothing more frustrating than turning the key and getting nothing, or worse, having your engine cut out in traffic. These are classic signs of a failing Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), a critical component that regulates power to your fuel pump. When it fails, it can leave you stranded without warning. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a reliability issue you can’t afford to ignore. Get back on the road with confidence with our direct-fit, pre-programmed solution.
Common Symptoms of a Failing FPCM & Your Direct-Fit Solution
A faulty FPCM can manifest in several ways, often triggering the Check Engine Light. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is the solution you need:
- Engine Stalling: The engine may stall intermittently, especially under load, and may or may not restart immediately.
- No-Start Condition: The engine cranks but will not start due to a lack of fuel pressure.
- Hesitation or Stumbling: The vehicle may hesitate or stumble during acceleration as the fuel pump struggles to deliver the correct amount of fuel.
- Reduced Engine Power Mode: Your dashboard may display a “Reduced Engine Power” message as the vehicle’s computer tries to protect the engine.
- Check Engine Light with DTCs: Common diagnostic trouble codes for a bad FPCM include P069E, P0230, P025A, and U0109.
Our programmed GM fuel pump control module is the definitive fix. We take a genuine GM module and flash it with the latest official software, specifically coded to your vehicle’s unique VIN. This eliminates the need for an expensive trip to the dealership for programming, saving you time and money.

Pro Tip: Why Pre-Programming is Non-Negotiable
In modern GM vehicles, the FPCM is not a simple relay; it’s a smart computer that communicates on the vehicle’s data network (CAN bus). It must be specifically introduced and coded to the main Engine Control Module (ECM) to function. Simply installing a blank module from a parts store will not work—the vehicle will not recognize it, and your engine will not start. Our service of pre-programming this programmed GM fuel pump control module to your VIN is what makes this a viable, hassle-free repair. We handle the complex computer work so you can focus on the simple installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I absolutely need to provide my VIN?
Your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is required for us to load the exact, correct software from GM for your specific make, model, year, and options. Without it, the programmed GM fuel pump control module will not be able to communicate with your vehicle’s other computers, and it will not work.
Is this part difficult to install?
The installation itself is generally straightforward for someone with basic mechanical skills. The module is typically located on the frame rail (on trucks/SUVs) or in the rear compartment. It involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connector, and removing a few bolts. Since our module is pre-programmed, there are no complicated computer steps required on your end.
Will this fix my Check Engine Light for code P069E?
Yes. The diagnostic trouble code P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded OFF) is one of the most common indicators of a failed FPCM. Replacing the faulty module with this correctly programmed unit is the specific repair for this code.
What happens if I forget to send my VIN after ordering?
We cannot ship your order until we receive your VIN. The programming is the most critical step of your purchase. We will place your order on hold and contact you to request the VIN to ensure you receive a fully functional part.
How is this better than buying a module from a local auto parts store?
Modules from local stores are sold ‘blank’—they are not programmed. After installing one, you would still need to have your vehicle towed to a dealership or a high-end shop with expensive GM-specific tools to have it programmed, adding significant cost and hassle to the repair.
