you have to check to see if the solenoid wire is getting power to it ...the PCM controls the the ground for the control side of the starter relay.....either the PCM is not getting the key to start signal or it is and the PCM does not like the cold weather ...you have to check the starter relay for all powers and grounds when cold .....if its later in the day and warmer you can remove the PCM and stick it in the freezer for a couple of hours this will simulate cold weather conditions on the PCM and then plug it in to see if this makes the condition come back if it does you know your pcm is bad
