You can by pass it but to do so 2 things need to be done
1)the chip in the DME needs to be replaced w/ a chip that does not expect an immobilizer signal.
2) the R61 relay needs to be by passsed, see this thread
Today I've ordered a Steve Wong chip for this very reason.
The relay will also be ordered.

However, is it possible for a DME to check out as OK and still have bad solder points?
And, if I install those items I assume the condition of the immobilizer is no longer something to worry about?
