Open four motors: Victor Problem

We have found a problem with the open four motors for the victor motor controllers. Whenever we use that vi, our motors will not run correctly. If we instantiated them as jaguars, they do. (by not working correctly, the sometimes stay at the last speed they were at and the safety config doesn't kick in). Sometimes randomly it will give off a -44061 error code. I removed all unnecessary code, including all the camera stuff and even the periodic tasks and vision vi (from robot main). I still have this issue. We also tried new batteries and checked all of the connections. What are we doing wrong?
