08 Camry Climate Control - Recirculate Turns Off On It's Own!?

I have a 2008 Camry LE with the standard climate control system. When I turn on recirculate, no matter what vent setting it's on, the recirculate shuts itself off after 3 minutes. I tried running the A/C, hot, cold, vent only, floor, bi-level, no matter what setting it still turns the recirc off after 3 minutes every time. It's almost like it's on a timer.

What the heck is going on with it?? Any ideas?

As far as i'v seen the system is set up to automatically turn off the recirculate whenever it thinks theres too much moisture in the air so that you don't end up fogging up your windows or causing mold to form in the HVAC system. I personally have a 98 camry which doesnt hav it but my dad's 2001 Lexus does. Its actually quite helpful, i'v seen lots of people complaining about my gen camry's where the HVAC smells terrible and its always been because those people left their cars on recirculate all the time, causing mold to build up in the HVAC from all the excess moisture making the terrible smell.
