The BMW LIM module is a CCS, CHAdeMO and AC charging controller. It is used to communicate between the vehicle and the public charging infrastructure, to allow fast charging to occur.
As these can be found affordably on eBay and from auto wreckers, they have been pursued as an open-source charger project.

Observations
VIN Numbers is not required for AC or DC fast charging to function
Functional LEMs have come from vehicles where the Air Bags have deployed, indicating that the module still works after a "Safety" event has occured
