Thanks for the thoughts...I've tried the suggestions above and so far, it seems like the RES function has substantially changed. It seems like hitting the buttons mentioned will kick it on if you're sitting in it, but as soon as you lock it, it seems to turn off. If you activate the Preconditioning, then it starts the vehicle. (In the F15/16, the fan would keep running until you either hit the fan button again to shut if off or after a period of time, which was about 10 minutes.)

I loved using the RES feature on cold days when I'm running errands. It would keep the vehicle much warmer, when turned off, if you were just stepping away for something like 20 minutes.
