The Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat - Powered Lift - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" # FV803350 unfortunately does not have a receiver so a remote for that fan/vent is not an option. You can hardwire it to a switch, but that only will give you the fan speed or power options. To get the remote feature you would need one of the following vents:

Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Remote - Powered Lift - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" # FV807350
MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - White # MA00-07000K
MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - Smoke
# MA00-04500K
MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - Smoke # MA00-07500K

I've attached some videos to assist with each replacement option.

The newer Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent Fans like part #FV803350 and part #FV807350 all install pretty much the same way, power and ground wires going into the fan and then either built-in controls or a wireless remote to control it. They don't use a…

While we don't have a specific wiring diagram for your 2000-2001 Fan-Tastic Fan #FV803350 I can say that all of these vents only have two wire; black (power) and white (ground). If you pull down the trim on the inside of your trailer you'll…
