I can't efile because the federal return checker says that my 401k contribution amounts are more than allowed. I've corrected the excess deferral using this though: https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/4624497-i-switched-jobs-in-2018-and-over-contributed-to-my-401k-i-...
Please help! I should definitely be able to efile this return.

You have taken the right steps including the excess deferral on your 2018 Tax Return.
At this point, I think you are running into an e-filing issue within TurboTax. An update to fix the issue is expected to be released around 4/5/2019. You can check out this TurboTax FAQ for more information: Excess 401(k) Contribution Preventing E-filing.
Be sure to sign up for updates to be alerted as soon as there is a solution. If you do not want to wait for an update, you have the option to paper file your tax returns as this is only an e-filing issue.
