HVAC is BCM controlled, so could be programming glitch or an ignition switch not sending an ON signal for that system.

The Avalon can be on for 20 minutes and the heat still does not come on, the fan works. I have to shut the car off and turn it back on for the heat to come out of the vents. The heat the defrosters work all day long after that.
