You can begin overheating a specific module by clicking the green light at the top of the module button. You can turn it off the same way. Alternatively you can right click the module and choose to overheat it. You can also use a keyboard shortcut: by default, shift+F1 overheats the module controlled by the F1 key, though this can be changed in the shortcuts options.

A module that's already active and receives an overheat command won't begin overheating until it starts its next cycle. A module that's already overheating that's commanded to stop won't cease overheating until the end of its current cycle. The green light at the top of the module button will flash when overheating is off but about to turn on at the next cycle change, or is on and about to turn off at the next cycle change.
