Your MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat - Manual Lift - 10 Speed - White # MA00-04000K could be cutting off after 10 seconds for the following reasons:
1. Insufficient or fluctuating power. Your fan could be receiving less than 12v of power. Check the power wire at the unit using a multimeter like # PT89ZR. If you aren't receiving 12v then you could have a voltage drop off due to the length of the wire running from the battery to the fan and would just need to increase the gauge of the wire. You'll also want to check all of the wiring for any loose connections.
2. Circuit boards are model specific so you could have purchased the incorrect board for your model.

3. You could have your fan set to Auto mode which will turn the fan off based on the preset temperature of the thermostat. Ensure your in manual mode and retest the fan.
