anybody please walk me through
troubleshooting or if anybody else

Start at the fuel pump..their notorious. Temp may just be coincidence.If pressure is there but low at all it won't crank. my 2001 jimmy did the same thing for 6mo. Replaced many parts including looking at the fuel press. But didn't realize it was low.
