To get the motor to run without the E-Unit, disconnect all the E-Unit wires from the motor. The power wire from the pickups goes to one brush connection. The other brush connection gets connected to one field connection. The other field connection gets connected to ground. The motor will run when power is applied. To reverse the motor direction, switch the connections to the brushes.
