that just happened to me on my 2000 frc. I tried buying the bypass from corvettes of houston but it didnt work for me. I think the reason was because i already had the recall performed on mine back in 04. My vette is at the dealership right now getting the problem fixed. It was a recall and if the dealership can prove it is related to the recall again then GM will pick up the cost. So your options are to try the bypass or to get it fixed at the dealership.
Good luck ill let you know how mine went when i get it fixed
