My circuit automatically shorts the motor terminals when ever power is removed, as required - and mine still coasts just a little bit. In fact, I've checked to be sure of the shorting when both relays are de-energized and I still see a small mount of coast. And it's enough to allow the magnetized to rod slip past the magnetic switch if I'm not careful. It may be that the magnetism on the rods on my mechanism has weakened and just barely trips the switch. I don't know. What I do know is that a positive acting micro-switch (mechanically actuated) will solve the problem and that's what I'm going to install, regardless of the actual source of the problem.
