Put the key back in and move the ignition switch slightly back an forth and on and off, with the fan on to see if at any point the fan shuts off.

isn't there a fuse for the heater? i dont have the manuel. or is there a plug i can unplug for the heater? cuz my battery is dead and i can't see if the heater will come on again... but when i jump it i just want the heater off i guess.... i think thats the only solution.

if you turn the switch to off position, does it turn off? that would be the easy fix is remember to turn it off.

You may have other items draining the battery then in addition to the heater blower.
Anything else work when it should not?? Or other strange happenings.
You may need to pull the - battery cable for now.
