Last year I started installed a Viper system with four separate -200ma aux, planned on using aux 1 for bumper light bar, aux 2 for roof light bar, aux 3 for dual rear light bars. I tested it out using this relay https://www.the12volt.com/relays/relaydiagram8.html setup, and the aux is only active while I hold the button on the Viper's key FOB. I do not plan on making these toggle on/off using this setup https://www.the12volt.com/relays/relaydiagram8.html because I'd need 15 relays... no room to install. So momentary only for aux channels cool cool, but I want to be able to put the switch on inside the vehicle to toggle the lightbars on until toggled off.

So the part that is confusing me is, if I use ground for the input on my three way switch which is Off/A/A+B, (A is KEY FOB and B is SWITCHED on) where A is the default position enabling me to Key FOB control the lights, when I put it on A+B, how do I both protect my Viper system, and what will happen if I Key FOB the AUX channel while A+B is switched on?

sorry second relay I posted was the https://www.the12volt.com/relays/relaydiagram24.html where you need 5 relays, alternatively with Diode it is still 4 relays
