Code P1615, anyone know what...

Anyone know what this code means? I had a dead battery today, charged it and when I started it, I got that code, along with the P0380 code, which I am sure that one was due to the fact that I jumped it, and started it on fairly cold plugs. Need to know what the P1615 means though.

Its not in my book or my online list either.

Looking online it appears it is "p1615 control module supply voltage" which would correspond to your bad battery.

You must have read the same post that I did from another forum. I am thinking either a bad battery or a loose terminal. It seemed to happen awful quick. And while I was letting it idle just a bit ago, the lights suddenly got brighter, like something was shorting. Will check tomorrow.

Ok, so I go to start my car today, and the battery was plum dry. I go get my battery checked, it is good, low but good. I am putting out about 13.7 volts, which to me seems slightly low, however it IS charging. So, it looks like I have something draining my battery overnight.

Come to find out, I just replaced the stereo saturday, go to get in the car sunday, it is dead. Apparently the stereo has some type of problem and is draining my battery while the car is setting.

Guess I am now on the hunt for stereo # 4. Bah!
