JavaFX TextField listener gives java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The start must be <= the end

So I am writing a javafx program to manipulate the individual bits in a byte. I have a textfield for each bit. I want to implement a changelistener on the textfields so one cannot enter anything but a 0 or a 1. It works fine if the field is empty and the user tries to enter a letter, but if there is already a 0 or 1 in it it throws an exception and I dont understand why.

Here is my code:

public class Task03Controller implements Initializable {
    @FXML private TextField zeroTextField, oneTextField, twoTextField, threeTextField,
                            fourTextField, fiveTextField, sixTextField, sevenTextField;

    @Override
    public void initialize(URL url, ResourceBundle resourceBundle) {
        zeroTextField.textProperty().addListener((observable, oldValue, newValue) -> {
            if(!zeroTextField.getText().equals("0") && !zeroTextField.getText().equals("1"))
                zeroTextField.clear();
           else if(zeroTextField.getText().length() > 1)
               zeroTextField.setText(zeroTextField.getText().substring(0, 0));
        });
    }
}

Using the same idea as the duplicate. You need to define a regular expression that matches binary numbers.

I am using "\\b[01]+\\b" to define binary numbers and "" to define an empty TextField.
