The first thing to do is to test the Hall devices. Connect up a 5v psu and make sure the connections are correct (in your picture, the left lead is +, the centre ground, and the output is on the rhs lead). Check that 2.5v appears on the output lead when there is no magnetic field about. This should change in the presence of N or S poles. Post results here!
