My blower motor will run even with key turned off. I have removed the fuse, heater works, but I have no fan. With the fuse in, it run continuous

It depends on whether this car has electronic climate control or not as to what part is causing the problem. With electronic it has a blower power module that would be the likely cause and it's located in the blower housing, under the dash on the passenger side, next to the blower motor.
