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.

I maybe showing my ignorance here but I’ve never seen faults codes like that on my display only the caution symbol or “call service”. Did you interact with the display or switches to get the fault codes? Whenever I’ve had any issues, including the bike refusing to start/move, I’ve cycled the power switch on/off 2-3 times and it returns to normal operation. It’s frustrating to deal with diagnostic errors but so far I haven’t had to return to the dealer. Any level 1 or 2 charger with a J1772 connector could at least eliminate that as the problem. Best of luck..
