So....the OP was outside watching someone clean the gutters on his house when the A/C blower(fan) in his parked, locked, and not running "vette came on and ran for 15 or so seconds. Then it did it again. He unlocked the car and pulled the fuse to the A/C blower to keep it from turning on by itself again. OP is that correct?

This is a new one to me. Hope you find what caused the blower motor to come on with the car off.

OK, I need to know whether you have a manual or dual control HVAC head unit.
I think it is the Blower Motor Control Processor. It is powered ALL the time so it's electronics could decide to run the motor.
Based on what system you have I have a couple of other options to consider but I think it is the Processor.

Also many things are activated or turned off by a simple single wire serial bus command.
Makes perfect sense when trying to reduce the wiring and components in the car.
