Answer
George,

Sounds like the body control module is going out.  I would take it to someone with a COnsult II scantool, like the dealer or a speciality shop, to have them verify through interrogation of the BCM to verify the problem.  It costs right at $100 bucks for them to diagnose.  I do not want to tell you to throw parts at the problem before it is verified.
