1/15th is frequently the problem with shutter speeds because it's the intermediate speed between the slow-speed gear train and the higher speeds. Look for a detent at 1/15 setting that is not settling into the slot for that speed setting. It may take you a while but you'll see it if you have good lighting and eyesight!!
