I would suspect a wiring issue. Do you get any clicks buzzes excetera? Are you sure the battery is fine? A warm battery may pass but a cold battery can still drop out if it has a weak / bad cell. Try to shift in and out of park. In a nut shell cars boot up process is to: check all electronics, turn on fuel pump and get the fuel system up to pressure, check the shifter sensor, check that the engine is not rotating, then fire the starter solenoid.
