Problem overview

Some Saturn Vue owners report experiencing stalling issues after replacing both fuel pumps, which may be attributed to several factors. Incorrect installation of the fuel pumps can lead to these stalling problems, while issues with the wiring circuit and fuel pump relay may also contribute. Insufficient fuel pressure is another common cause, necessitating verification that the fuel pump is delivering the required pressure for optimal engine performance. Conducting a fuel system pressure check is recommended to ensure the fuel pump is functioning correctly. Additionally, while spraying starting fluid can help diagnose potential fuel pump issues, a pressure test is essential to confirm the root cause. Many owners note that low fuel pressure and engine stalling are frequent problems following a fuel pump replacement. Finally, the Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM) plays a critical role, as it adjusts the fuel pump speed based on signals from the engine control module to maintain the desired fuel pressure. Addressing these factors is crucial for effectively resolving stalling issues in the Saturn Vue.
