Answer
Martha,

you don't say how old unit is.One possibility is that the fan relay contacts point welded shut and keeping your blower running 24/7.they work on time .Time on time off ( TDR ) on wiring diagram.You would need to look at the wiring diagram and trace out the blower motor leads and pull the wire off the fan relay or you may have a control board that starts the fan. Hopefully that should stop your fan.If you have the old style fan control combo limit control which mounts on the panel and has a sensor that senses heat exchanger temps. your settings may be out of calibration and not shutting the fan off due to age. your wiring diagram will tell you volumes . If you feel your blower motor is turning at half speed ,then chances you have a grounded motor.Would need to ohm out motor and check to ground.All this sounds Greek to you ,and you don't have anyone who is electrically inclined ,recommend calling for service
