so if I am a PA resident and contribute to a 401k (have an amount on w2, box 12, D), does that mean I have to put the amount in box 12, D or the 401k contritions as an addition to PA income?

You enter your W-2 when you prepare your federal return.  Enter every amount from every box of your W-2 into the federal software.  That information will flow to your PA return.  You do not enter anything else about the 401k anywhere in federal or state.
