Remove other connectors:

red/blue cable is horizontal deflection
yellow/brown(green) is vertical deflection
White is degauss
black is gnd
Read the Horizontal Yoke Coils inductance, in this case 0.2milliHenry (mH).

Read the horizontal resistance, in this case 0.5ohm.

Repeat for vertical, and that is pretty much it.
