Motor Moving While Set To Zero

We have a motor connected to a talon. In our code the Talon should always be set to full speed forwards/backwards or zero/off. Moving the motor forward or backwards works perfectly, but whenever the motor should be set to zero/off, it continues to move backwards slowly. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Here is part of the code for reference:

Code:

public class OI {

    public JoystickButton rollersIn;

    

    public OI() {

        rollersIn = new JoystickButton(rotateStick, 1);

        rollersIn.toggleWhenPressed(new RollersInCommand());

    }

Code:

public class  RollersInCommand extends Command {

    public RollersInCommand() {

        requires(Robot.arm);

    }



    protected void initialize() {

        Robot.arm.rollersIn();

    }



    protected void execute() {

    }



    protected boolean isFinished() {

        return false;

    }



    protected void interrupted() {

        Robot.arm.rollersStop();   

    }

}

Code:

public class Arm extends Subsystem {

    SpeedController motor = RobotMap.armmotor;

    

    public void initDefaultCommand() {

    }

    

    public void rollersIn(){

        motor.set(-1.0);

    }

    

    public void rollersOut(){

        motor.set(1.0);

    }

    

    public void rollersStop(){

        motor.set(0.0);

    }

}

What is the LED on the Talon doing when it is moving slowly?

Try calibrating your Talon.

The light is slowly flashing red.

Okay. Thank you. I think that this will probably fix it.
