Thanks for the tip! Where exactly is the antenna ground connection located? I'm not very experienced with car electronics.

In my case, the antenna ground was located near the base of the antenna, under the roof lining. But I can't guarantee it's the same in your Talisman. Given the error code and symptoms, I'd suggest taking it to a workshop. It could also be the FM signal amplifier.

Okay, thanks for the advice! I took it to a local shop, and it turned out the antenna was defective, just like you suspected. The total repair cost including parts and labor was 255€. Much appreciated!

I had a similar issue with my 2017 Opel Insignia. It started with static noise and eventually the radio just cut out completely. Did you check the antenna ground connection? A bad ground can cause all sorts of weird vehicle electronics problems.
