Hand Warmer Wiring

Bought some new hand warmers. Sports Parts Inc. is the brand. The wires are bare and they are Red, White, and Black. Instructions say that the following is what each wire is for
White: Hi
Black: Low
Red" Common or Ground

I'm going to cut the polaris connector off the stock hand warmers and wire it up to the SPI warmers but my the wire colors on the polaris warmers are as follows: Blue, Brown, and Blue/Red.

Does anyone know which color of wire is which on the polaris warmers?

Someone else will jump in but For Sure Brown is Ground!!

I would figure Blue Low ,Blue/red High
 
FWIW, on the poo, high is both circuits on, low is a single circuit, as I recall. Diagram is in the shop, so can't say which one is which right now.

Here's a dwg I came up with a few years back.. May be helpful here.

I have these SP1 warmers too and I’m trying to wire them to the Polaris harness. In disagreement with the schematics above, the SP1 does not have a blue wire, but instead it has a black wire (black, white, and red). The Polaris switch on the AXYS also only has a low/high setting so I don’t think the modified schematic above is correct (no medium heat setting).
 
I would agree that the schematic does not look correct for either one.
My experience would have the ground out the middle, High on the left side so power had to run through both elements and Low on the right side so pwer only ran through one element.
An ohmmeter should help you figure out which one should be High at least.

I think from the SP1 product documentation that:
Black = ground
White = high
Red = low
I currently don’t have an ohm meter on me and I’m trying to ride in the morning so I want to try something haha.

Which SP1 wire should go to the Polaris blue w/ red stripe wire?

This is what makes sense to me.
 
For reference, this is how I ended up wiring my SP1 warmers and they seem to function properly (low, off, high all seem to work).
Black = ground Polaris Brown
White = high Polaris Blue/Red stripe
Red = low Polaris Blue

Someone please correct this is you know it is wrong, but for now this seems to be correct.
 
Blue must be low-small filament size
Blue/red must be high
Suppose on the 3 setting option they 1, 2, then combined for high making this circuit in the switch?
