The valves are controlled by the module you have already replaced and supply a ground to either/both valves to actuate.
The valves are supplied 12v via fuse 15.

I think the valves work bass-ackwards of what you'd think ( read that somewhere ), IE energizing the solenoid stops the flow, but I could be wrong, never verified this, too messy.

There is also a thermister in each left/right heater core that tells the control module what's happening there.

NOTE: would you be willing to part with one of the control modules at a reasonable price ?
Great minds think alike, or so I'm told.
