The blinking green light of a Maxxair roof vent means that the voltage the vent is seeing on it's power circuit is outside of what it will work with. My guess is your toy hauler has a battery with low voltage which is causing the issue so that's where I would start.

The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat #MA00-05100K that you referenced runs on 12 volts and draws 5 amps max. If your DC outlet can handle 5 amps then this would work but it would be right at the limit.
