do you mean the speedometer or mileometer is digital?
often digital speedometers have a switch on back or tou can reset to read in mph. the digital mileometer will stay same if you fit a convertor chip and this bit wont affect sva im sure

yup it's either a converter chip or switch.

It does the total mileage too on most vehicles.

Chips are inexpensive. Most of the popular vehicles have a switch.
