is he responding to his name? does he point? and any luck with joint attention like if he's doing something or playing does he look at you and try to tell you to check out what he's doing? my 21 month old little girl didn't do any of those when she was around 15 months which made me think she's got asd. She was diagnosed at 18 mos with moderate asd. hope this helps!
