Is Your GM Truck or SUV Stalling, Hesitating, or Refusing to Start?
As a mechanic with over two decades of experience, I’ve seen countless GM vehicles towed into the shop with the same frustrating symptoms: the engine cranks but won’t start, it stalls unexpectedly at a red light, or it sputters and loses power on the highway. In a vast majority of these 2007-2009 trucks and SUVs, the culprit isn’t the fuel pump itself, but this small electronic box: the Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM).
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a permanent solution. We take a genuine GM-spec module and program it with the very latest GM software updates, specifically matched to your vehicle’s VIN. This process is critical because many of the original factory software versions had flaws that contributed to premature failure. By providing your VIN, you get a module that’s not just a replacement, but an improvement over the original, ready to install right out of the box.
The Definitive Fix for Common Fuel Delivery Problems
A faulty FPCM can mimic a weak fuel pump, leading to expensive misdiagnosis. Before you spend hundreds on a new in-tank pump, check for the classic signs of a failing module. This pre-programmed GM Fuel Pump Module is the reliable, cost-effective way to restore your vehicle’s performance and dependability.
- ✔ Eliminates Stalling & Hard Starts: Restores consistent fuel pressure to solve intermittent stalling, long crank times, and no-start conditions.
- ✔ Restores Lost Engine Power: Fixes hesitation, sputtering, and “Reduced Engine Power” messages by ensuring the fuel pump gets the correct voltage.
- ✔ Clears Common Trouble Codes: The most common code for a bad FPCM is P069E. This part is the direct fix for it and related codes like P0230.
- ✔ 100% Plug-and-Play: No dealer visit, no expensive programming tools needed. We handle all the programming before we ship.
- ✔ Updated GM Software: Flashed with the newest calibrations to correct original design flaws and improve longevity.
A Real-World Scenario from My Shop
“A customer’s 2008 Tahoe came in on a tow truck last month. It would crank but not start. They had already replaced the fuel pump, but the problem persisted. A quick scan showed code P069E – Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination. I checked the FPCM, located on the driver-side frame rail, and found it was corroded from years of exposure to road salt and water. We installed one of our pre-programmed modules, and the truck fired right up. They could have saved $500 and a lot of frustration by starting with the FPCM, which is the more common failure point.”
Easy Installation: Get Back on the Road in Under an Hour
Replacing the FPCM is a straightforward job for any DIYer with basic hand tools. On most trucks and SUVs like the Silverado, Sierra, and Tahoe, you’ll find it mounted to the frame. Here’s a general guide:
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
- Locate the Module: Find the FPCM. On most full-size trucks/SUVs, it’s on the driver-side frame rail, near the spare tire. On other models (like the Traverse or Colorado), it may be on a rear crossmember.
- Disconnect and Remove: Unplug the electrical connectors. Use a socket to remove the bolts holding the old module to the frame.
- Install the New Module: Bolt the new, pre-programmed FPCM into place. Be sure to clean the grounding point on the frame for a solid connection.
- Reconnect and Test: Plug in the electrical connectors, reconnect the battery, and start your vehicle. Your problem should be solved!

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I provide my VIN for programming?
A: After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship the module until we receive your VIN, as the programming is specific to your vehicle.
Q: Is this part difficult to install myself?
A: Not at all. For most DIYers with basic tools, this is a simple, one-hour job. Since it comes pre-programmed, there are no complicated electronic steps involved—just unbolt the old one and bolt in the new one.
Q: How do I know if my FPCM is bad and not my fuel pump?
A: While symptoms can be similar, a key indicator is the diagnostic trouble code P069E. Also, FPCM failures are often intermittent at first, causing stalling that becomes more frequent over time, whereas a failed fuel pump usually results in a consistent no-start condition.
Q: Will this work if my original part number is different?
A: Yes. This module, part number 25967325, is the correct, updated replacement for several older part numbers, including 20759945 and 25866052. As long as your vehicle is on the fitment list, this part will work perfectly.
