How can I remove foreign earned income amount from wage section? I entered the amount by mistake then deleted form 2555 but amount still shows up under wage and income.

I entered the amount in the section by mistake and have tried various ways to delete it including:
1. Deleting forms 2555-T and 2555-S 
2. Answering No to "Did you make any money outside US"
Even after these two the foreign income and exclusion section (under Wages & Income) still shows the original amount that I entered.

@RCS5 , Sorry I am a little confused / don't understand the situation.

The wages i.e. covered with W-2 are entered in the wages  section;  Foreign earned income and exclusion thereof shows up under "less common incomes".   So what is the situation -- are  you a US wage  earner with a W-2, a US person abroad whom is earning wages abroad ( wage statement NOT W-2), or is it a mixture of both  ( i.e. you get both ) or what ?

 

Please answer this  so I know what you are trying to achieve--yes, please ?

And I will circle back
