I hope you already know what the error code was that caused the CEL. Disconnecting the battery is not a good thing to do, the engine management has to 're-learn' your driving habits and you could fail an inspection if the system is not 'ready.'

As to the ECC, correct, always leave the AC on. That allows the blower to come on to help dry the evaporator when the engine is shut off. It sounds like the AC switch needs to be rocked a couple of times and then left in the on position.

Is the orange light on? Do the AC and recirc orange lights blink after engine start? That would indicate a problem and turn off the 'automatic' functions. The blower can still be operated and the AC should still work.

BTW, turning the blower to zero will turn off the AC.
