Setup, Configuration and Use Scripts & Rules

It’s probably too late now that the rule is mostly working for you, but for future readers, this entire behavior can be reduced to:

Items:

Switch Light_Timer {expire="5m,command=OFF"}

Rules:

rule "Switch on kitchen lights when detecting motion at night"
when
    Item molganKueche received update OPEN
then
    if(nightTime.state == ON) {
        logDebug("Motion", "Turning on lights in kitchen")
        LichtKeucheUntenOn.sendCommand(ON)
        Light_Timer.sendCommand(ON)
    }
end

rule "Kitchen light timed out"
when
    Item Light_Timer received command OFF
then
    logDebug("Motion", "Turning lights in kitchen back off")
    LichtKeucheUntenOn.sendCommand(OFF)
    molganKueche.postUpdate(CLOSED)
end
