Fuel Pump Driver Module ?

My 1999 f150 is having issues of bucking while going down the road and it only happen on a hot day. It's like someone is turning the key off then back on.It's only for a split second. I'm having trouble determining if this truck has the fpdm or not. and if this may be the issue.

Thanks

Mud

It does not have such a module.
Which motor do you have?
If a 5.4, a good likelihood there is a faulty coil.
Good luck.

do you have any error lights showing on the dash ? Agree, one of the COPS is a good bet.

No lights or codes. it isn't a miss, its as if someone turns the key off for a split second and then back on. It started last summer, but quit after a few instances, now its back. I have replaced coils on my 4.6 Lincoln so I know the symptoms and this isn't it.

It's the 5.4 I have even ran my auto ingenuity scan tool with no results. It's very intermittent. Is seems to only happen when it's over 100 degrees. Last winter it never showed up. I'm stumped.

You should look at mode 6, test 53 the cylinder misfire monitors to be sure it's not a coil with a high misfire count.
It will under certain circumstances cause the PCM to stop processing for an instant then resume again.
It's the same effect as if you turned the ignition off and on very fast.
When the PCM stops, everything stops.
Good luck.

I would return those ACCEL coils and get from a store like ROCK AUTO.
ACCELs are not good.
Get OEM Ford or at least Rock's GM offering.
Good luck.

I have a 99 f150 triton. It too has been doing the same thing. Only today, it completely died. I got it started after about 30 seconds or so, and then it wouldn't go over 25-30. It was like it was stuck. And it kept bucking. Luckily I made it to my driveway. Help! The search engine light is on, but they said it doesn't give them a code. So I have no clue.

ambo, if the check engine light is on there is a code set.
Get some one else to check for code.
Please start your own thread because many times the issues are not the same.
Good luck.
