The 'oxygen sensor'may need to be replaced on '96 Sentra when the check engine light comes on. The should be replaced on the '96 Sentra every 100k miles for better fuel efficiency and to protect the converter.

Where to put transmission fluid on a 1985 Nissan Sentra?

Hopefully if you are thinking of adding transmission fluid that means that you checked it..If so you are in luck, you put the trans fluid in the same place you checked it. However you have to get a transmission fluid funnel, also you need to ensure that you check it correctly. If you read the dipstick then it should have directions on how to check it. It should be checked in "park" with the engine running.
