Is there a pin-compatible replacement for ARG05BTC1500?

Yes, RT0805BRD07150RL from Yageo is a pin-compatible replacement with a matching 0805 package, 150Ω resistance, and 0.1% tolerance.

What risks should I check before replacing ARG05BTC1500?

Verify that any substitute matches the 0.1% tolerance and ±25 ppm/°C TCR. Using a lower-grade thick film resistor can impact circuit accuracy and performance over temperature.
