Default 98' xj check engine

My 98 XJ check engine light went off the other day. Ran a test and got PO138(O2 sensor high voltage bank 1 sensor 2) my O2 sensor is brand new and just replaced. Got under the rig to see if any wired was frayed or
Damaged to find nothing. What else should I be looking for? Does sensor 2 meaning it's a problem running to the cat? Any advice would be great.
Thx

If you change one then you usually have to change the other as well. And if it's a Bosch then you might as well take it out. NTK is the one people here will recommend and I will too. Changed both my bank 2 sensors with NTKs.

You have two oxygen sensors on a 98. Are they both new?

More on P0138.
