I have this same problem.  Irrevocable trust (living trust).  I made a 645 election.  TT does not have a "step by step" way of addressing the 645.  So I checked the 645 box in G and entered the EIN of the trust beneath that.   However, when I checked the Decedent's Estate  - Date of Death (DE) box in A , as required by the IRS, it gives an error because the Complex Trust (CT) box is also checked.  I cannot uncheck the CT box, even if I first uncheck the DE box.  Suggestions?
