Your question and post will get more viewings if you have it moved to the Allison transmission forum.
You might try removing the touch-pad and cleaning the contacts for wiring underneath, and the fuse block. Often simply unplugging and reattaching wiring does the trick, but -5C is cold for anything to function properly.
