o2 sensor is a wear and tear item so u cant fix it. simply buy a new one and replace it. ngk makes a good one. http://www.ngk.com

and secondary o2 sensor is the one on the cat convertor.

Usually when the cat goes bad, along with a rattle, you'll notice a decrease in performance/mileage

Also it code is for the heater circut. Not the signal. If it was the signal part then it could be the cat.

The heater circut is checkable with an ohm meter.
