The code of DD is Health Insurance paid by you and the employer and does not impact the tax computation. 

Code E is a 403B plan and code EE is a Roth. 457 plan

The code E is important as it reduced the amount in box 1 of the W-2 that will be taxed. 

If you have already filed, wait to see it rejects, and then fix it.  The tax on the return is still correct, the W2 just does not balance.  

If you have not filed go back to this area and Edit it to get these entries in.

Turbo Tax form is not subtracting 12b E from AGI. Why not?
