TalonSRX uses encoder when not in Voltage mode

Which voltage control mode are you in? Percent VBus or Voltage Compensation?

You may have some soft limits set on this talon. They are elephants and never forget. So if someone set limits a long time ago, they may be stored in firmware. Check the web dashboard to see if that is the case.
