You've completed one thermal shock cycle. 999 more and
you've completed the automotive requirements for passenger compartment components (almost). ;-)
Actually, hitting electronics with a cold cycle is a good way to discover any poor solder joints. If you get good operation after bringing it back to normal temps, you're probably just fine.
