Help! I can't charge my Leaf any more with AC

I had a problem the other day when I went to charge but it was a short charge anyway. Then I went to do a proper charge on public chargers and couldn't get any power on either of the two chargers I tried nor the next day either.

Leafspy has some DTC codes showing issues with charging [1] and I think it did the last time I scanned a few weeks prior but charging has been fine until a few days ago

The codes are: P31xx-00-08 where xx is 6C,70 and 71 with the description PD module system EVC-241 (238 for 6C)

Is there anything that could have caused this to happen suddenly? Please tell me there's a fuse that probably blown

Update: Got it to work. I don't know how exactly but I fast charged it last night and found a tethered type 1 charger near-by and decided to try that and since it had a type 2 socket I though I'd try that first, and that worked.

If I had to guess it was probably a 12v battery issue. Leaf spy measured 12v and at one point on the drive back it was reading 8 amps, which I believe means it was drawing a lot of power perhaps because the charge was very low and needed to recharge quickly. Thanks /u/Lothsahn_ and /u/Radius118
