It sounds like you've got the switch between +5V and GND. What pins
exactly are you connecting to?
The sensor connections Are like this:
_ _ _
G + I
N 5 N
D V P
You dont need a resistor to use a microswitch. The HB inputs have pull-up
resistors, so all you need to do is connect the input to GND to make it go
low.
