Q: What does code P241E mean?

Reductant Heater Coolant Control Valve Stuck Closed. P241E indicates that the powertrain control module (PCM) has commanded the reductant heater coolant control valve to open, but the valve remains stuck closed. The PCM detects this by monitoring the coolant temperature sensor circuit or valve position feedback, and it sets the code when the expected temperature rise or flow change does not occur within a calibrated time.
