lil help w/ my first foray into CHECK ENGINE light diagnosis...

In my search for proper gas mileage it dawned on me that my check engine light has never come on when starting the car. So, I check the bulb and its not there...damn p.o. I popped a bulb in and the light is on solid.
Not having to pull codes on a saab (or any car) yet, I could use a little basic guidance. My bentley is tattered from everything else I've done and learned but the check engine light code section has me a bit stumped.
My new O2 sensor just showed up and I plan make a snow angel under my car in the snow putting that in this weekend. IF the light is on due to the sensor (no, i don't really expect this kind of good fortune) will it go off on its own once replaced? The idle is a little surgy and fussy (very little - more "felt" than seen on the needle) but since I discoverd a short at the coil I have good accel again.
Thanks as always guys.
