Went to start my 850 after the winter -- lights on on but no starter at all!

You did press the brake pedal before shifting? if so, the brake switch could be stuck. I think it also does the brake lights so see if they work. the cruise control brake switch is next to it.

It went into hibernation and needed a rude awakening before it's faculties became fully functional.

The shifter in my T5 was like that when I bought it, and it always needed the Manual Override button depressed to shift it out of Park.

Then one day, it decided to work properly, and I only need to use the Override button maybe once every 100 times.

Won't be an issue when I get the manual trans installed.
