About B0015

B0015 is a generic (obd-ii standard) body diagnostic trouble code recorded for Holden vehicles. It belongs to the B-prefix family of codes, which covers body, interior, airbag, or comfort-electronics faults.

When B0015 is stored, the module has detected an electrical-circuit fault in the wiring, connector, or driver associated with the named component.

Scanning & clearing: Body (B) codes are often stored in the body control module, airbag module, or climate module. A basic OBD-II tool usually will not read body codes — an enhanced or OEM-level scan tool is typically required.

Because B0015 is a generic OBD-II code, its base definition is shared across manufacturers. The specific diagnostic steps, reference values, and repair procedures can vary by vehicle, and the TaT Diagnostic Assistant includes verified procedures submitted by working technicians.

Code Information

The Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM / Airbag Control Module) continuously monitors the seat belt pretensioner deployment loop for correct resistance and circuit integrity. DTC B0015 is set when the SDM detects an electrical fault in the right front seat belt pretensioner deployment circuit, such as resistance outside the calibrated range, an open circuit, or a short to earth or battery voltage. This condition indicates the pretensioner may not deploy as commanded during a collision, so the system is disabled and the SRS warning lamp is illuminated.
