I just tried another test, and it does matter what temp you leave it set at. If I adjust the temp to match ambient (or close to it), if I get in and wake it from sleep, it starts the blower near the middle of the speed range.

I noticed that the button in the lower left corner of the climate control panel marked "AUTO" doesn't really seem to be a button like the 3 above it (they all push in and the led on them lights up when pushed in). Is the AUTO one supposed to be a button that moves in and out? Mine is in a permanent IN state, but the button can be wiggled a bit, so I was just wondering if it was stuck. The light on it stays lit always unless one of the 3 above it are activated. I think it goes out if MAX is pushed, but I'll have to check that when I get back in.
