Thanks. Called the dealer today, the module doesn't need to be programmed, and confirmed out of warranty. I guess I'm replacing a fuel pump!

I have a 2019 1500 RST, Crew cab/short bed. Was driving one evening, and stalled, and could not start back up. Engine turns over for about 20-30 seconds, doesn't start. It sat overnight, and then started working, and worked fine for a couple weeks, then it happened again. The codes I get are P1029 and P129F, which seemed to indicate the Fuel Pump Control Module was the issue. After the first incident I ordered one, so after it happened to me the 2nd time, I installed it. However it still didn't work. So now I'm wondering two things: 1) Does the Fuel Pump Control Module just need to be programmed to work for my vehicle? I'm reading conflicting things about this part and whether it needs programming or not. OR 2) Is it likely the actual fuel pump that needs to be replaced? Banging the gas tanking w/ a hammer while trying to start didn't seem to work either time I was stalled. I know that doesn't always work, but my truck isn't that old w/ only 35k miles. Pretty lousy if it failed. Finally-- I have never dealt with any kind of powertrain warranty service. I believe I am still under warranty until next year? Would the fuel system be considered part of the powertrain and likely covered? If that's the case, I'm wondering if I should just tow it to the dealer and get it checked out. Has anyone dealt with this issue?
