Replacing propane detector

Hey guys, I'm sure that someone has wired these before. I need to wire the 12 volt exact factory replacement, First Alert factory installed propane detector in my RV. I cut the wires before taking a picture of where each of the wires went. My bad.I know that the ones shown with the inline fuse goes to positive but unsure on the other two. The detector it's self has only one black negative and the red positive that the three contect to. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide. It's 14 years old so yes it's bad.

Thanks Flybob, The diagram shows being connected to the house battery. What I need is which wires connect from the factory wiring shown near the floor in the picture to the two, black and red coming from the detector. Thanks!

The red and blue with the inline fuse I know connects to the positive on the back of the detector. The other two showing I'm unsure about.

The black shown on the left, negative. The middle one showing I'm unsure of.
