LIS3DH Interrupt INT1 Mode Not Firing

I'm using the LIS3DH set at 1 Hz ODR.  My SPI hardware seems to be working since DATA_RDY interrupts come in fine at a steady 1 second interval and the accelerometer data looks good.  In fact I get good data at all speeds.  However I can't seem to get the threshold interrupts working.  I read the app notes, found setups on the web, and tried a lot of different configurations.  Below is a sample setup.

Could you send me a register sequence that you know works to trigger an INT1 interrupt?

Also the ADC seems to give me 2032 to -2032 for a range of .9 to 1.8 volts maybe this is a clue.  The temperature gives me -16 so I haven't been able to get this working either.  Self test seems ok.

Thanks
