don't think you can, i had the pass lock problem where the anti-driver/ anti-theft light will flash and make you wait 15 mins w/ your car on accessory before starting, because it thinks your trying to steal your own car. i lived it w/ it for almost a yr of it happening anywhere from 1x-8x a week, before the light would just always stay on before i got it fixed. from what i read its basically a hall effect sensor that craps out. there are articles out there that talk about cutting the passlok wire and rigging it w/ a switch to bypass it, they also say you can bypass it by putting in a remote start- i didn't want to do either and my mechanic didn't want to mess w/ it and suggested i go to the dealer, which i did, they replaced the lock cylinder and ignition switch which ended up being $500 job- it did fix the problem, haven't had any issues w/ it since

Where is the passlock sensor on a 2001 Chevy Malibu?
You have to remove the radio to get to the passlock sensor. Once the radio is removed, its right behind the ingnition switch. It is possible to by pass it, the yellow wire required to do it only though. The sensor is actually part of the ignition cylinder itself. It is in the case surrounding the tumbler portion of the lock.
