The discrete components in the EVSE plug should just be a couple resistors. Most of the diagrams I've seen indicate that with the plug disconnected from the car, measuring from ground to the Proximity Pilot pin should show around 450-500 ohms when the switch is open and around 150 ohms when it's closed.
Measuring the voltage on the pin when it's connected to the car will be difficult to impossible depending on how the cord is set up (many don't have a wire connected to the Proximity Pilot pin).
