DIY Dual Clutch with Hall Sensor

I am starting this topic to provide some general guidance and collect feedback as I see lot of reports of people having issues with the Hall Sensor config for my Dual Paddle Dual clutch module found here:

The hall sensor mod was based on the following thread at  RaceDepartment

I am using standard 49e Hall sensors in my design, here is both pinouts for the Fanatec Podium Hub and Hall sensor itself: 
 

Wiring is very simple - VCC, GND and signal should be connected directly. Fanatec Wheelbases are supposed to calibrate themselves - I did not have issue with that. 
If you connect only hall sensor to one side on the corresponding pins the base will detect you have Podium module connected. When you start moving a single magnet around the Hall sensor it should move the clutch axis. This is the simplest test to verify if you connected properly the Hall sensor.
Keep in mind - once Hall sensor reaches maximum position with freehand movement it will stop working (this is because of the automatic calibration). If you manage to get any output on axis - this would mean it is working. When everything is placed properly together and stays at the same place - it calibrates and works properly. I received another confirmation this works as expected - I presume most problems are actually improper installation.
