AC blower runs without key
2000 S80 - My wife said she noticed the ac blower motor running a couple times after she turned off the car and removed the key. Then yesterday, I was jacking up thecar to put it on jack stands and the ac blower started running (no key in ignition switch). I had to insert the key and cycle on/off to stop the motor.
Any ideas what is causing the ac blower to run when the key is out?

RE: AC blower runs without key
Yeah - I have a S80T '01 - and this freaked me out as well, when it first happened. It does cover this in the owner's manual - which I have read from front to back. I was also freaking out about the fuel tank door not closing and just kinda flapping in the breeze. Well come to find out, when you lock the car (either with the remote or from the driver's side door) there is a delay of 10 minutes, then the door automatically locks. Geezzzz. Smarty pants Sweedish engineers...

If your blower motor is doing something different - you may have a bad blower motor resister.

The first time this happened to me (nearly 4 years ago) I was pretty confused about this. However, I've found that if I turn the fan **** all the way to the red light, at least 30 seconds before turning the car off, this function won't happen.
If it does happen, you can turn your key to the first position, turn the **** all the way on then off again quickly, and it will stop this from happening again until the car is driven.
