It's because it's still getting power

But seriously, you need to provide more detail.

Maybe post your code.

Does it still run when the robot is disabled??

Nope. When I run talon.get() it also returns 0.

The relevant block of code is here:

public void stopSpeedControl() {
DebugLog.log(DebugLog.LVL_DEBUG, this, "Talon GET: "+this.talon.get());
this.talon.set(0);
this.spdControl.cancelEvent();
this.spdControlEnabled = false;
}

I have confirmed that it has entered this block of code.

There may be other code which is turning it back on.
