I don't have any idea how, electrically, the sensors work. If they
are just switches pulling the IOLine to ground, is there a pull-up
resistor? If not, use OOPic.PullUp = cvTrue which works on IOLines
8..15 when they are used as inputs.

So, break the problem into two pieces: test the switches and display
the results on an LED and test the motor code without the switches
being evaluated.
