If you don't want to try resoldering the climate control circuit board, then your bypass will work as long as it feeds power into the low pressure switch on the a/c drier(vertical round cylinder just in front of passenger side firewall under the hood). If this switch is bypassed then the compressor will never cycle and the evaporator can freeze up.
