Good day!

Well, this is a strange one indeed... The only thing I can come up with is that you have a pin stuck in the connector and it is making a bridge across to the other pin when connected to any sensor... Not connected, you lose that pin from the sensor to complete the circuit... !??!!?

Maybe?!!

Good luck and let us know what you discover...

Cheers!!!
