Expert Reply:

If your original MaxxAir fan did not come with a remote like # MA00A01150K then you will need to upgrade your old unit with something like the MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote # MA00-07500K.

The Replacement Handheld Remote for Maxxair Roof Vents # MA00A01150K is only compatible with fans that have an intake and exhaust functions.

This being said, you cannot replace a circuit board/modify a fan that is not compatible with a remote to make it compatible with a remote.
