I've learned to deal with the SIDE AIRBAG OFF light coming on and going off now and then, even when the seat is empty. With 7 sensors, it's bound to happen. As long as it doesn't come on and stay on with an empty seat, you're okay. It should and will come on when you have a passenger that is out of position.

The CEL flashing at 100mph is probably due to a misfire.. maybe you have a bad coilpack(s). Do not continue to drive with a flashing CEL... the flashing means the computer cannot compensate and engine damage may occur.
