They could be 5 volt pulses. The sensor itself puts out the volt
pulse. They only happen when it is spinning so I think a bench test
might be in order?

Basically I would put the meter on pin 1 and 2 and hand spin it to see
if it pulses. Or 1 and 3 or 2 and 3. It is something like some of the
distributor units, they show a pulse on a meter when hand moved.
