Basic problem - car is almost impossible to start if temps are below 50 degrees and if it does start it will not respond to throttle inputs until engine has thoroughly warmed up

I've run the blink code diagnostics and get results that don't follow what is listed in Bentley
     crank engine for 6 seconds (or more) - bridge fuel pump relay - code 4444 - bridge fuel pump relay - code 1111 - bridge fuel pump relay - code 0000
according to Bentley after I get the 4444 code I should get the 0000 code rather than 1111 - it does not have any data relating to any other codes than 0000 at this point in the diagnostic cycle. In the chart it lists a 1111 code as indicative of a failure in the ignition/fuel injection control modules and states that the repair procedure is to replace the ignition
control module. If anyone can give me direction as to what has actually failed and how to proceed it would be greatly appreciated.
