might have poor grounds on the lights, causing higher current draw, which in turn causes the overload thermal contacts on the switch to open ... could also be that those contacts are a bit loose so they heat up too fast, make sure they're closed tight when cold and the 'buttons' are contacting well and clean ... a Bosch relay setup shouldn't be necessary, try renewing the wires to the bucket first
