the unit should have some numbers or letters on the pins. once you have found those, take a look here:

If its the old fashioned 1960s style round thermal type stick an ohmmeter across it --- two terminals should find a low ressistance between them,
one connects to power the other to the flasher lamps, the other terminnal is for the warning light bulb.
Which way round the main terminals go is guess work but it you get it wrong the warning light won't work.
