A/C blower fan gone crazy !! S60

Help !! I pulled my car into the garage, turned it off and went into the house. About an hour later I went out into the garage and heard a strange sound coming from my S60. Got into the car and low and behold the A/C fan is blowing full blast. Car off, no keys in ignition. A/C light off but fan is blowing full blast. I had my wife come out to look at it so she didn't think I was crazy. I then put the key in the car started it and then turned the car off. The A/C fan then turned off.

Any ideas what is going on ? I'd sure hate to run a new battery down if this thing decides to come on in the middle of the night ?

Thanks Morph.

The newer AC systems will run the fan to keep the moisture out of the evaporator, even when the key is out of the car. This is normal practice and will not keep running until the battery is drained.

Thanks for the info Klaus, the S60 is a new car to me and I have never seen it happen on my 2005 S40 so it was quite a shock. Makes sense to do since it will cut down on the mold problem.
