Mk4S and MMU3 filament sensor not sensing

I added my MMU3 to my Mk4s. Followed the procedures. It is failing the filament sensor calibration. I can see the the idler nut moving when the filament is inserted and thus the little arm moving that I pushed the 3x1 magnet into. I'm at a loss. FWIW I did print the printable parts with PCCF on my CoreOne and bought the magnets from Amazon. I am tempted to print a modified idler nut with room for two magnets to see if the magnets I bought are too weak to trigger the sensor. Any ideas?

I went ahead and printed a modified idler nut that could take two magnets and it solved the issue.
