You just need to choose any two motor leads and measure the pulses between them. The diode only lets through the positive pulses instead of letting the AC go to the meter. A capacitor would help to smooth the pulses and get better readings. I suppose you could just read the AC voltage produced until you get a 2V peak-to-peak reading.
