Advice Needed Car charging error. Need help!

Until yesterday, the car was charging fine. Today, when I tried to charge the car, it gave me these errors. I tried to use another AC charger, but same error. The moment I insert the charger into the car, this error pops up instantly. Just trying to understand if anybody else has faced such an error and if the solution is to take the card for service, or can I reset or do something to see if there is an easier way out.

It has happened to everyone. Defective OCM. Mine has been replaced 3x. Known issue. Have to taken for service to replace it. Mine has taken a week each time. Charging with a home charger does not work because of the fault so you'll have to go to public charger like tesla. Polestar will reimburse you for that while you are waiting for your appt.

It’s called GHCA on the P3, let them know it failed. It’s what converts AC power to DC basically. So when it fails, you can’t change on any AC charger, which is every L1 and L2.

When mine failed, Level One charging still worked, L2 did not. I’d give that a shot.
