Overdrive is the normally allowed position but if you have switched the
overdrive off ( using the switch on the end of your gear selector lever ,
P R N etcetera ) then the O/D OFF is lit up in your dash
Either push the button again or the next time the vehicle has been shut off
and then restarted the light should go out

I was looking at the ( 2001 ) Ford Explorer Sport Trac Owner Guide and it shows there is an ( O/D OFF ) light in your gauge cluster when the ( overdrive ) is switched off by using the switch on the end of your automatic transmission gear selector
Normally the overdrive is allowed so you will not see the light If you have shut off the overdrive the O/D OFF light will be lit up in your dash

If you don't want the transmission to shift into overdrive ( such as when towing a trailer , or driving in hilly country where the transmission is constantly shifting between drive and overdrive ) push the button on the end of the gearsfift selector ( P R N etcetera ) and the O/D OFF light will appear in your dash . Overdrive is the normally allowed position , but on my 1995 Ford Explorer doesn't shift into overdrive until I'm going around 50 Miles Per Hour
