Residential Energy cost worksheet (Form 5695) is not using the correct number

When entering the cost of a qualifying heat pump, the Turbo tax worksheet is using the incorrect maximum amount allowed for a Joint Occupant.  For some reason the software is limiting the maximum allowable amount to $1,667 when the "Help" information sheet indicates the amount should be $6,667.  The software is only giving me a $250 ($500 for both occupants) instead of the allowable $1,000 tax credit ($2,000 for both occupants combined),  The only way I can get the correct tax credit is to over ride the limitation with the correct limit within the worksheets when viewed in the forms menu for form 5695.
