1. A magnetic sensing system comprising:
a sensor disposed within a housing of an appliance, wherein the appliance includes a first moving component, a second moving component, and a third moving component;
a first magnet disposed in a first orientation adjacent the first moving component, a first position of the first magnet to change in concert with movement of the first moving component;
a second magnet disposed in a second orientation adjacent the second moving component, a second position of the second magnet to change in concert with movement of the second moving component; and
a third magnet disposed in a third orientation adjacent the third moving component, a third position of the third magnet to change in concert with movement of the third moving component;
wherein the sensor detects displacement of the first moving component, the second moving component, or the third moving component;
wherein the first magnetic field strength is twice the second magnetic field strength, and the second magnetic field strength is twice the third magnetic field strength.
