Both myself and friend of mine own a 19 Silverado 1500 (RST and Trail Boss). Same exact issues with the Fuel Pump Module. GM needs to eat this one and put a bulletin out to repair a known defect.

Sounds like a lot of guys real frustrated with this issue.

 

I’ve given up on dealers.

 

buy the part off eBay and replace yourself. Two screws and one clip….. very very easy

2020 Chevrolet Silverado RST 4WD 5.3 V8 Fuel Pump Control Module Failure less than 20k miles.

 

Dealer said may be a month and is renting a car for me but wants me to kick in on the cost.

 

Not happy about this at all !!

Buy the module and do it yourself. $50

I am having a similar issue however my code was a P0498 EVAP emission system vent valve circuit low. Replaced the vent valve solenoid but still had light. Replaced the purge valve solenoid but also still had light on. Took it to the dealer and they say the fuel pump flow control module needs replaced but is on b/o. Waiting to hear when they think it might be in. Seems to me $500 is a bit steep, isnt it mounted on the side of the frame?

Is there any reprogramming necessary afterwards?  Should I disconnect the negative the battery while swapping out the part?
 

Must be a bad batch of modules or something.

Just purchased a brand new 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Limited with barely 700 miles. A few days ago, the Service ESC, Check Engine, Engine Power Reduced and StabilitTrak lights came on! Took the truck to local Chevy/GMC dealership and was told that I have a bad fuel pump! Part is on order (May 11th 2022) so let’s see how long this will take -_-

I just had the exact same thing happen on my 2020 HC.  It is at the dealer now and they don't know how long till the parts come in...

 

Has anyone had a second failure?

My 2020 Trail Boss has been in the shop several weeks now.  The fuel pump is bad according to the technician.  Fuel pumps are on national back order according to customer services.  They don't have any idea of when the part will be in.  I am very upset.  Customer assistance offered to pay the truck note, but I have to pay the tag and insurance ($250 per month).  That can get expensive fast on a vehicle I cannot even drive.  And I am worried about the income tax ramifications of them paying the note.  At some point doesn't the lemon law kick in? I am seriously over this truck.

      AFM Experience

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.

      Upgrade to a 2026 AT4 with the 3.0L Duramax

      By Blade8971 · Posted

      Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
