How do I fill out California combat zone foreign earned income adjustment? None of my foreign earned income is related to combat zone. Should I write $0 or full or empty?

My foreign earned income exclusion is $69157. If I leave black, Turbotax writes $65744 automatically.

If your income wasn't related to a combat zone then you will enter $0.

I have exactly the same issue. It is very confusing that Turbotax handles my foreign earned income exclusion amount under combat zone foreign earned income exclusion. I clearly stated that I am not in the military. This issue made me go back to the federal part to check that I did not accidentally check a combat zone box somewhere.
