1997 Ford Explorer 4WD lights flashing

I have a 1997 Explorer with 124,100 miles on it. About a month ago, my check engline light came on and after having taken it to Autozone, found out the oxygen sensor was running lean and 3 cylinders were misfiring. My father-in-law fixed the problem but the check engine light is still on. Also, my 4WD light started flashing. What would cause the check engine light to remain on and how do I get it to go off? Also, what does the 4WD light flashing mean? How do I fix the problem?
