AC doesn't always remain on after restarting engine

[xspeedy]

I tried doing a search, but the search engine is limited since "AC" isn't a long enough search phrase. I tried Air Conditioning and Air Conditioner, but haven't found this issue mentioned.

My 1994 525i has an issue where if the AC is running and the engine is shut off and and later restarted, the AC doesn't remain on. Basically, the AC forgets that the previous setting was ON. It doesn't happen all the time, so a little odd.

Anyone see this or know a fix?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the links guys. I wasn't aware of the search tool posted above. Yes, I have to manually turn the AC on after a restart on occasion, even though the AC was already on at vehicle shut down.
