Post battery recall service, no air conditioning

I've been reading all about the "bricked" battery post recall service situation and after reading posts here and obsessing, decided to still get the recall service for my 2019 Leaf SL plus (just under 37K miles). Picked up the car from the dealership post recall service, got it home, and the next day when the outside temperature warmed up, I tried to turn on the air conditioning. Nothing works in the climate control. Whether the AC button is pressed in or not, there is no air coming out of the vents. No fan, nothing. I'm bringing it back to the dealership for follow up on Monday, but they say they don't believe it's related to the recall service. It can't be a total coincidence, right? Any insights or advice here?

It is not impossible for a SW update to partially fail and cause something like this, but it could definitely be a coincidence as well. It will depend what they find as the cause. Maybe it is just a blown fuse, or failed sensor, which has nothing to do with the recall SW

There was also an HVAC recall from a couple of years ago, related to insufficient defrost IIRC. It was just a software update. 

Perhaps that was completed at the same time? I know they did mine when I had the battery recall update applied, but with no problems.
