Default 96 XJ O2 issue

I have a 96 Xj with the check engine light on. I took it to autozone and ran a quick diagnoses. It indicated that the upstream O2 sensor needed replaced. I had that sensor replaced about 7k miles ago, but it was about 4 years as I do not drive it much. I have read online that the old Xjs will sometimes show the need for a sensor replacement but actually have a blown O2 fuse. I looked in my owners manual and could not find anything about an O2 fuse. Does the 96 xj classic have a fuse for the O2 sensor? If so, where is in in the engine compartment fuse box? Also if I need to replace the upstream sensor, should I replace the downstream also. The XJ has 105K miles

I'm not sure if we have an O2 sensor fuse but the fuse box is located behind the battery in the engine bay.
