Thanks for reaching out, Bill!
If the rain sensor on your MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat # MA00-04000K isn't allowing your vent to run then that tells me the sensor is still wet. Try to give it some time to dry and see if that allows you to use the fan.

Hey Bill, did letting the rain sensor on your MaxxFan Plus dry out get the fan working again? Knowing how it turned out could help others with the same blinking light issue.
