    blower motor staying on - even after keys out!?

    As it say in the title,

    if ive had the blower on in the car, at any speed, when i stop and turn the car off (keys out, lock it up etc. the blower continues to blow?

    is this normal, or has something failed?

    it seems weird as ive been having trouble with the battery discharging itself with in 36 hours if the cars not used ( I always turn it to the off position before leaving the car) also take the face off the stereo and make sure all interior lights are off.

    the car does have an alarm, but surely this wouldnt kill the battery within 36 hrs?

    **also posted in electical section incase its more that side of things**

    definately got a problem there if it runs on without the keys - some kind of open circuit or something, though I'm definately no electrician

    Someone with a few options will be along soon I'm sure.
