Default 00858 - Connection; Radio ZF Output to Antenna

I recently scanned my 2002 TT and this came up:
Address 56: Radio Labels: None
Part No: 4B0 035 186 H
Component: concert II NP2 0007
Coding: 00201
Shop #: WSC 00003

1 Fault Found:
00858 - Connection; Radio ZF Output to Antenna Amplifier
36-00 - Open Circuit

Does anyone know what this means(I still get radio reception) and how to fix it?

Default If the radio is original, then the ZF cable is disconnected or there is a break in the cable..

Therefore the "ZF Open Circuit" DTC is because the ZF coaxial cable is not connected at the radio. The ZF cable, when connected to the original radio, is used to power the Diversity antenna amplifier, and to send FM signal reception quality feedback to the Diversity antenna switching function according to signal strength from the several connected antennas. You still have radio reception because the "HF" RF coaxial antenna is connected to the HF input on the radio, so the signal is available to the HU. However, the antenna amp is not active without the power normally supplied by the ZF cable, therefore the signal received by the HU is not amplified.
Either reconnect the ZF cable, or find and fix the break in the cable to the diversity amplifier.
