They are asking for the deduction amount so you would enter any deductions as a positive number.

When I enter it as a positive number, my tax liabilities (tax I owe) increase instead of decreasing. But when I enter it as a negative number my tax liabilities decrease, which make sense. Is this a glitch in TurboTax?
The deduction from foreign earned income gives you less income to exclude so your tax would increase. TurboTax is calculating it correctly.
