Yes because you not only need to reduce the voltage from
I think 5v down to .5v it has to fluctuate around the .5V
atleast twice.  Hence the crappy resistor statement.

Yes I've yet to get my butt in gear and call to
find out why.  I vaguely recall someone else having the problem
and it being a ground wire?

I'm not positive.

Yes.  Since you have the sensor there the voltage may not be
low enough but you could add a resistor to bring it in line.
Unless the voltage isn't high enough then you have to toss
the sensor all together.
