Overdrive relay not working when cold - M-46 200 1982

M-46 overdrive relay does not respond when car is cold in the morning. I mean 0 to 15° F. It will work when car is warmed up and I can then see the green pilot in the instrument cluster. It does test OK with a 12v source on the bench in my warm garage.

I noticed there is quite a bit of electronics in that relay. Could there be some components getting weak with time ? And can it be fixed ?
