 Hi Greg,  the connector is consist of three female connectors, two 3/8"
 and one 1/4".  The thick brown wire with the 3/8 connector goes to the middle.
 The small 1/4" brown/yellow goes to the left side and the small brown wire
 with the other 3/8"  connector and goes to the right side (or outter most).
