2 problems at once

Well my engine light has been on off on off for quite some time now. Good ol PO1701 code. Not really sure if its an o2 or not but I do have a injen CAI but its been on for awhile with out any probs. Well today my damn airbag light came on with it saying "service airbag" well I know i wasn't hit and did not hit anything so has anybody had these peoblems? Solutions? Dealer said o2 is good under warranty 3yr 36,000 mile and I am over on the mileage. BTW car is a 06 ss/sc cobalt

p0171 is safe to delete, it's from your intake, and isn't doing anything bad to your car. not sure about the airbag light though.

which vacuum line was it. i'm getting this right now and having a hell of a time trying to figure out what is causing it. i've already had the injectors replaced, gonna check my intake tomorrow and all the vacuum lines for holes.
