changing 02 sensor

I got error code P0133 and changed the proper oxygen sensor-no big deal. Check engine light went off after 2 minutes of driving but came back on about 2 days later.

I didn't disconnect the (-) terminal during the change and didn't have the codes reset since the light went off by itself.

My questions is this. Did the light come back on b/c of "memory" or is there another problem. Just guessing, I went out and disconnected the battery for about 5 minutes. This reset the computer and I'll have to wait and see.

What do you guys think?

Clean all of them then put them back in, especially if your truck has high miles. Basically, your cleaning the carbon build up off of the sensor.
