The OD off light indicates that the Overdrive function in a vehicle's transmission has been disabled. Overdrive allows the engine to operate at lower RPMs during highway driving, improving fuel efficiency. When the OD off light is illuminated, it typically means the vehicle is restricted to lower gears, which can be beneficial for towing or driving on steep inclines. If you did not intentionally turn off overdrive, it may be worth checking the vehicle's settings or the owner's manual for more information.
it means the overdrive is not on.

od light is the overdrive unit on the transmission. If you drive on the freeway you should have the overdrive unit on, on the streets the unit should be off. The light usually doesn't have anything to do with overheating. I would look for some other issue.
I have a 2002 F350 and my OD light came on, that was 3 transmissions ago... by default the fords are in OD, you have to turn it off when towing. Never tow without turning the OD off first. My experience was that the trans was burned up, and the light kept flashing, or You might be exceeding the speed for being in OD.

OD= Overdrive. There will be a switch to engage/disengage the OD located on the shifter, or on the console in close proximity to the shift lever. It should even have a marking on it.
