The same thing happened to my '97 Dakota with the 3.9 V-6. Took it to my dealer and found that the catalytic converter was bad. The light never came on again after it was changed.

My 97's came on after I added headers, high flow cat, flowmaster duals...I reset the PCM and it has yet to come back on. Sometimes they might trip something when you add aftermarket products.
