Generator battery control module on 2006 Chevy truck

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.
