If you are also an employee of the S Corp, the contributions to the 401(k) can only be made from your wages, not your distributions. Distributions are not considered earned income for purposes of 401(k) contributions.
If you made made contributions to a 401(k) plan from your salary, your contributions should show up as a box 12 amount with a code of D, and your box 1 should be "net" of these "elective deferrals". If your W-2 is not correct, you should arrange for a corrected W-2.

Intuit online payroll service does not handle amended W-2 (filed electronically, completed).
Can I use TurboTax Business to amend an employee W-2, requiring also W-3c and 941-X?
Unfortunately, no. TurboTax Business uses Quick Employer Forms (QEF) to prepare W-2s and 1099-s. QEF does not support corrected forms at this time. Once the original e-filing is accepted:
