Easy to do if you have a multimeter.
Look for 2 wires that have no change in resistance when you move the throttle, they will be Vref and GND.
The 3rd wire is your signal. -> you've found the signal wire
Now measure the resistance between the signal wire and any of the 2 other wires. If the resistance goes up as you open the throttle, than you've found the Vref wire.
The 3rd wire is easy

What he said ^ It's always best to verify, but I'll go out on a limb and say:

black: ground
red: vref
blue/white: signal

Either way you should report back with your findings for future reference.
