Election to Not Claim Add'l Depreciation carried from 2017

I elected not to claim additional/bonus depreciation on an 1120S return for 2017.  I don't want to make the election for 2018 but the election apparently carried over and I can't find a way to remove it.  The election statement is printing out and none of the eligible assets have bonus depreciation calculating.

When I go to the election screen 38 there are no entries in that section.

I can override by entering the amount on Screen 16 where I entered the new asset.  But that doesn't stop the election statement from printing.

It's my understanding this is an annual election, so I'm not sure why I'm stuck.  Anybody else having this problem?

Just a guess - Is Election 1 still present and bold? If so, click Delete below it.

Unfortunately no. There's nothing bold on either election screen.  But thanks for trying!

Try clicking delete on the Election 1 anyway.

I did.  I tried a variety of deletions of non-existent entries.  I just can't find where this thing is coming from.

I found it!  On screen 16 there's a button for Elect Out of All SDA (Bonus) which takes you to a Miscellaneous Ovedrride  that was checked.  Thanks for getting me to look in another direction
