they should be magnetic ( the thin blade thing that sticks out of the end by the sensor ring ) and when disconnected from the loom and a dmm used, and the wheel rotated, an output can be seen.........they also have a coil resistance which I cannot recall from memory but the info was gained form here, so look in the guides bit to start......

Seems to be either a dodgy wire/connection or sensor on the off side front. I've seen some aftermarket sensors on ebay, are they ok or should I give them a miss.
