Gpio 15 on esp-12s is actually pulled down with a 12k resistor internally. see attached schematic of esp-12s

I tested with a multimeter without enabling spi it read 0 volts with enabling spi it read 3.3v

The internal pull up on GPIO15 is only operational during the boot period. After that it is controllable via the mode.

You may measure 0V with a 12K pull down but that is because the pull up has been de-activated by then.

The 12K may be sufficient for many modules but I think it is too high to give a good low during the boot phase. A low is supposed to be < 25% Vcc

Is there a way I can activate the internal pull up after boot up? So I could test.

pinMode(15, INPUT_PULLUP);
