Does anyone know how to overide this module so that the alternator will
charge 14 volts all the time?

WHY? Other than being a great way to burn up the alternator and the ECM
along with frying the battery what possible reason could there be?

FYI the actual regulator on that vehicle is inside the ECM.

The charging control system and electrical power management is by the ECM
and other modules and sensors, Steve, there's still an actual regulator on
the CS130 series used in light trucks /SUV from 1986- 2006 models and the
13.8V output standard is initially set by this unit, which it will default
to in failure mode after throwing a code if issues occur. But yeah, trying
to overide the system and force fail mode operation will only damage the
battery is the height of stupidity.
