So turn the pot inside the servo until it stops moving.

If the servo is already modded and moves when the MCU is sending the zero degree command then chances are you may have modded it improperly by accident. Also, have you checked all the voltages getting to your servo and MCU? Make sure there isnt a power drop into your MCU when both devices are running otherwise that could cause the MCU to put out the wrong signal.
