Which interior light ?
Testimonial: "All of them"
and engine compartment fuse box does not have a interior light fuse on pontiac montana sv6 2009.
No it would be in the fuse box inside the vehicle .
Fuse # 5 - 10 amp INT / LAMP Fuse block IP - instrument panel . This fuse feeds the BCM - body control module , the BCM Turns on the lights . Fuse Block - Instrument Panel
In the instrument panel, behind the right instrument panel access panel
Inadvertent Power Feature
Inadvertent power feature provides a similar function for the interior lamps as a retained accessory power feature. The BCM will energize the courtesy lamp high control circuit and the inadvertent power courtesy lamp circuits when the BCM is in the active state (awake). When these circuits are energized, voltage is to all the interior lights, including the courtesy, cargo, reading, and vanity lamps. Any time a switch is activated to the ON position the BCM will wake up and apply voltage to the lamps after the ignition is turned OFF so that the interior lamps may be operated. The inadvertent power feature will also act as battery run down protection by deactivating the circuits after 20 minutes once the BCM becomes inactive (ignition OFF and no BCM input activity.)

If you live in a area in which salt is used on the roads, you probably have a corroded ground connection.
These can be tough to find since there are several grounding points in most vehicles.
When a ground fails, the current (the applied 12V) will find its own path to ground and can pass through different light bulbs on the way.
If it was only the signal flasher creating problems, this can be caused by a single failed light bulb; the flashers are thermal devices and when the current is lower than it should be, the rapid flashing alerts you to the failure.
You might consider buying an after-market service manual from Haynes (my first choice) or Chilton.
The manuals I have for our various vehicles give a general location for the grounding points; for example, 'Right side engine'

Just to make sure, you did check the fuses at the end of the dash on the passenger side too as to the one under the hood in the engine compartment. If the fuses on both fuse distribution box are good, then your may have a bad body control module.
Good luck and thank you for using fixya.
