Any way to test a rotator

My father gave me an old Channel master 9510 rotator. I wired it up to test but could not get the rotator to move. I am not sure however if my problem is with the rotator motor or the control box. The control box's red dot will move when you turn the knob but that's all. I tried to hook up a multi-meter to two of the 3 connections on the control box yet when I turned the knob the multimeter would show a blip of DC voltage coming out and then go back down to pretty much 0.

Does this sound like the control box is the issue or am I not testing it correctly with the multi-meter? It was hard for me to find any information on the control box's pinouts.
