I think you are talking about a reluctor? Hall effect is usually optical with a disc breaking a light beam which leads to the unit sending a signal to the computer. No sure about the retard/advance units. Simply disconnecting the vacuum signal for the advance/retard canister will stop it working, but the mechanical advance I'm not sure about.
