I'm really struggling with this. At the moment I now have the +sensor working, which is an improvement over last night, but the -sensor is NOT happy. It will either register nothing, or 2 shifts. I'm using the heat gun to soften the glue, and slide it over in very small increments (1mm each). If I can't get this to work eventually, I may cut the sensors and go with a switch system that Ninja250 uses.... but I would really like the magnetic switches to work.

EDIT: Do you have your magnet parallel to the shift linkage bar, or perpendicular? What are the distances you settled with between sensors?
