B-G431-ESC1 Hall sensors connection issue

Hello, I am using a B-G431-ESC1 board to power some BLDC motors. I have alrady used it succesfully to spin some 2 pole pairs BLDC using Hall sensors for speed control. I even managed to implement some code to stop the motor at every half rotation of the shaft. It worked flawlessly with this type of motor. Now, I tried connecting a different type of BLDC, still 2 pole pairs but thats all I know since I don't have the datasheet. The motor profiling part went as expected and it managed to calculate all the relevant properties of the motor. I saved it and implemented the Hall sensors as aux speed control for Hall profiling. The difference from the other type of motor is that this one has a 6-wire Hall connection. Using an oscilloscope, I found that the extra cable was likely for temperature, so I left it unconnected. However, I keep getting Pin not connected on the pin wher the same cable is plugged (the blue cable). Whether I put the blue cable on H1, H2 or H3, the board doesnt recognize it as connected. The other two Hall always read connected correctly. I tried every type of configuration and it never worked. What  am I doing wrong?
