its a flex a lite unit that has 3 little prongs sticking out of them, the one on the left is by itself and the other two are connected.

all i need to know is where do i run things (positive and ground wires) from the battery-->fan thermostat---> to the fans

thanks a bunch for the help

I've never used a flex a lite unit before, but here's a shot in the dark, I think this will work.

Run your 12v bat. to one of the two that are connected (not sure which, it really should be marked, if one doesn't work; try the other), run the other to the thermostat wire on your fans, and the one by itself to ground.

If that doesn't work, try switching the ground and fan wires. Since I've never seen or used one like that and I didn't wire up my own (friend helping with the swap did that.) I'm not 100% sure that this is right. Shouln't hurt to try. Just make sure you place a fuse between the unit and the battery.
