Default Vintage Air system, blower will not shut off

I have just installed a Vintage heating and air system in my 71 Corvette and the darn blower will not shut off. I am working with their tech department and we have replaced the ECM and wire harness but the blower still runs. I have sync'd it 10 plus times according to their manual and nothing. I will contact them again on Monday but thought I would flip this over to you guys? Thanks

Does that turn off with the ignition off? I don't think it does but will double check tomorrow.

The purple wire needs to be unpowered when the ignition is off. A pink wire....

No effect and the blower stays on with the ign on only it will shut off with the power off.

Is it blowing max? Did you reprogram with the purple wire connected correctly? Which controls are you using?

Send a PM to this guy. He is the Engineering director at Vintage Air and pretty helpful:

I am using their alt controls and there is no individual ground for them. I will call them again tomorrow, this is driving me nuts.
