Will they come on if you open a door other than the drivers? check fuses 4,5,31. Everything goes through the LCM (lighting control module). If all door switches test good and fuses, the LCM is most likely the culprit

After the car is stopped, keys removed doors closed, withou or without being locked;
the interior lights will dim and go off and then in about 15 seconds gradually come back on. This cycle repeats indefinitely.

It sounds like the GEM Module. It is what controls all the lighting and some other stuff.

I would like to know what are the color of the wires going to my door latches that turn off my interior lights. I donated 10 dollars the last time and got an answer about door locks.
