QUESTION: is the new digital style,if i drive it it'll  show mph but mileage is not visible neither trip mileage instead it said error on mileage display . otherwise eveything else works fine ,what could be the problem?

Answer
If the digital speedometer is working correctly but the odometer and trip mileage do NOT operate and display an ERROR message this is a fault in the speedometer cluster assembly which must be sent out for repair thru your local Cadillac parts department.

You can self remove the cluster and hand carry it into the parts department.

It is nothing that you did, It is just a coincidence that the micro-chip blew for the odometer and trip meter display. It happens.
