Is Your GM Truck or SUV Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
If your 2008-2009 GM vehicle is experiencing erratic fuel delivery, a check engine light with codes like P069E, or a frustrating no-start condition, the culprit is often a failed Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM). As a master tech, I’ve seen this countless times. These modules are typically mounted on the frame rail, where they are constantly exposed to road salt, water, and debris, leading to corrosion and internal failure. Don’t replace the entire fuel pump until you’ve checked this critical component.
The Dealer-Free, Plug-and-Play Solution
This is your permanent fix. We are offering a genuine GM Fuel Pump Control Module that comes professionally programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN before it ships. This eliminates the need for an expensive trip to the dealership for programming. You get a part that is loaded with the latest GM software updates for optimal performance and is ready for immediate installation right out of the box. This is the most efficient way to restore your vehicle’s reliability and performance.
A Real-World Scenario from My Shop
“A customer brought in his ’08 Silverado 1500 that kept dying at stoplights. Another shop had already quoted him over $1,000 for a new fuel pump. I scanned it and found code P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Commanded OFF). A quick visual inspection under the truck confirmed my suspicion: the original FPCM on the frame rail was heavily corroded. We installed one of these pre-programmed modules in under 30 minutes. The truck fired right up, the code was gone, and the customer saved hundreds of dollars on a misdiagnosis. Always check the FPCM first!”

Simple Installation Guide
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery.
- Locate the Old Module: Find the FPCM. On most trucks and SUVs like the Tahoe or Sierra, it’s mounted to the driver’s side frame rail, near the spare tire. On other models, it may be on a rear crossmember or in the engine bay.
- Disconnect and Remove: Unplug the electrical connector(s). Be sure to clean any dirt or debris from the connector before plugging in the new module. Then, unbolt the old module from the frame.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed FPCM into place and securely reconnect the electrical harness.
- Final Step: Reconnect the battery terminal. Start the vehicle and verify that the check engine light is off and the engine is running smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know if my FPCM is failing?
A: Common signs include the engine cranking but not starting, stalling while driving, poor acceleration, and a check engine light with codes related to the fuel pump circuit, such as P069E or P0230.
Q: What does ‘VIN Programmed’ mean?
A: It means we use your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to load the exact software and calibrations your specific vehicle requires. This makes the part plug-and-play and ensures it communicates correctly with your vehicle’s other computers.
Q: Where do I provide my VIN?
A: After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your VIN. We cannot ship the part until we receive this information to program it for you.
Q: Can I install this myself?
A: Absolutely. If you are comfortable with basic hand tools and working under your vehicle, this is a very manageable DIY job. Since we program it for you, no special electronic tools are needed.
Q: Is this the same as a Fuel Pump Driver Module?
A: Yes, the terms Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM), Fuel System Control Module (FSCM), and Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) are often used interchangeably for this component.
