P0628 on Chevrolet by model: symptoms, diagnosis and fix
GMT900 Silverados (and the late GMT800) mount the fuel pump control module / fuel-system control module on an exposed frame-rail bracket where it is constantly hit with road salt, water and debris. The module's connector and internals corrode, and the FPCM then fails to drive the in-tank pump — producing extended cranking, intermittent stalling, and ultimately a crank-but-no-start with no fuel pressure. Because the pump itself is often fine, owners frequently mis-diagnose and replace the in-tank pump first. A common, well-documented salt-belt failure with steady search demand.
Common Symptoms
- Crank but no start / engine won't fire
- Extended cranking before starting
- Intermittent stalling while driving
- No fuel-pump prime sound at key-on
- Loss of power / hesitation
- Fuel-system codes / pump not commanded on
How to Fix
Diagnose by checking for fuel-pump prime/pressure and FPCM communication and inspecting the frame-mounted module connector for corrosion. The fix is to replace the corroded fuel pump control module (a new programmed module is required; GMT900 OE 20759945 / later 13543038 family) and clean/repair the connector and grounds; relocating or sealing the connector helps prevent recurrence. Rule out blown fuse/relay and a genuinely failed in-tank pump first.
