If the interior goes off only when the engine start, you may have connected the STARTER KILL wire instead of the trigger wire. It maybe just an overlook on your part.
The alarm going off every 5-6 minutes could be a combination of many things. Disconnect all of trigger going into the alarm first. Wait and see if the alarm will act up again. If it goes off without any trigger connected. You know the brain or the remote unit may be the issue. Now connect the rest of trigger if you gotten to this point. Continue to follow up with your investigation as you have with rest of the install. Check your hoodpin, grounding, voltage, ...etc. I hope this will get you started.

DOOR TRIGGER|yellow    |- |drivers kick panel
To avoid dome light delay there are 5 separate trigger wires in a 14 pin black plug at the BCM located between the steering column and the drivers kick panel. The plug is located in the drivers side front corner of BCM just behind the knee bolster. All wires in the plug exit straight down. The door trigger colors are tan, tan/red, tan/orange, and tan / YELLOW. The trunk trigger color is tan/black. All of them are negative trigger. Grab each wire and diode isolate.

The CCD module in the vehicle controls dome light supervision and I believe it activates the dome light upon disarming the factory alarm. In the driver's kick panel is a purple / YELLOW wire that works as the factory alarm disarm wire that goes to ground when the key cylinder in the door is turned to unlock. Check this wire to see if it is resting at ground.
