Possible OBC failure

I have a 2020 ELW that I fear may have a failed OBC. After my last ride for the season a few weeks ago, I parked my bike in my garage and was charging it up to meet the range specified for long term storage in the manual. Around approximately 46% I got a notification that my bike had stopped charging and the breaker had tripped for my garage. I reset the breaker, unplugged the bike but it will no longer charge. When I plug it in, the EVSE starts blue as normal but turns to red in moments. I’ve tried different outlets in my garage, clearing the fault codes, and checking the fuses to no avail. I haven’t yet called the dealer as I have a few months of winter to do that if need be but I’m trying to see if I can avoid a trip there if possible. Anything I’m missing Or possible solutions? I have attached the codes for my bike. The first is before I tried clearing the codes and the second is more recent.

have you tried a different charger to be sure that the outage did not blow that?

I have not yet been able to try a different evse. The only person I know who has one lives a fair distance away. I don’t think that’s the problem as the blue light indicator on mine acts as normal but consider it a possibility.
often lights still work on devices but the board has been fried elsewhere.
I'd putt on down to a local charger somewhere and make sure it still charges off that.
If it does, then it is very likely the portable one (the one the bike came with.)

If you buy another buy it from LiveWire... HDMC' is like $1K!!
