A total of 18 I/O external to the node. There are further inputs from sensing output driver states to detect short-to-ground or short-to-supply.
It’s high-side FET drives all round except for the fuel tank float level sense and the filler flap actuator which will change from vacuum to electric (H-bridge drive), with positional feedback .
The fuel pumps are fused at 25A for both as stock. Separate fuses for every lamp can provide useful information but don’t improve operational reliability, as the pressure pump should stop when the transfer pump fails, so 1 fuse for both.
Lamps can be fused per cluster. It is more likely that something causing a fuse to blow on one side will not affect the other. If two 5A fuses are used per cluster, then e.g. indicator, tail and fog light can operate off one and reverse and brake light from the another.
A single 5A fuse is then sufficient to run the other loads driven by the node.
Total current drawn via the node is about 40A maximum with fog, brake and tail lights on, tailgate open (compartment light lit) and emergency flashers going while the engine is running. Don’t try to tell me that that doesn’t happen every day! 
Anti-theft immobilization can be implemented by not starting the fuel pump when commanded. Such a command may be physically injected by a rogue node pretending to be the LINbus master, but the message’s signature won’t match that of the trusted LINbus master node.
