Need help with airbag light/b1015 Code
I have a 98 that has been having the airbag light come on for months now with the above code (DTC B1015 Passenger Deploy. Loop Resistance High.) I first took it to the local Corvette shop, but it was clear they were in over their heads with this, so I took it to the dealer. Now, $1000 later and 5 total times at the two shops, the light is back on.
The first shop replaced the airbag module under the HVAC head, which did not help and the dealership has cleaned all the connectors and now replaced them, to no avail. The dealership service manager is talking about asking Chevy for advice, but I figured I would check here to see if anyone has any ideas.
Each time they "fix" it, the light goes out for 2-3 days, but seems to come back on after sitting in the hot parking lot at work. At first the light was intermittent, but now it seems to stay on once it returns the first time
Summer is almost over and the car has been in the shop more than in my possession, so I am hoping to get this fixed once and for all.
Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Sounds like they owe you $1000. You do not need to pay for parts that don't fix the issue......only troubleshooting time.

I don't disagree, but they had to get the part from a dealership who may not take it back and I am so frustrated with that shop I decided to cut my loses and move on.
It's a little scary that the dealership is at a loss too though, that's never a good sign.
