rear o2 sensor won't do anything bad to your car get a tuner to get rid of it for good or you can get it fixed for about 90 bucks but it will just come on again.

I usually just ignore it. For me, it's a secondary air pump or something, which is a component that the car never came with, or was supposed to come with. Either that or my gas cap.

Pour a cup of water on the fuses.

It usually stops the check engine light from coming on.

You could also have your O2 sensor checked. Most common to throw a CEL.
