Default o2 sensor!!!!

HELP....I have a 2001 jeep cherokee. The problem I keep running into is the eng light keeps going on, I know it's the o2 sensor. My question is how do I reset the system for the light to go off, without going to the dealership?

this belongs in the XJ talk section, i will move it for you.

and you go to autozone and they can clear the code for you free of charge.

Mine has a new cat...but still the cel comes on. Code says bad sensor. It stays awhile and then goes off on its own, then comes back.
This isn't a sign of any "real" problem , is it. It runs great.
