First try another key if you have one.
If that doesn't work then remove the negative wire, wait a few minutes, reconnect and try.
If that doesn't work then you might have broken cable to the ignition switch.
If you are getting a starting disabled message, it's an indication that your security system is rejecting your ignition key. Your car is equipped with the VATS security system which requires a key with a resistor attached (small chip). Over time the sensor inside the cylinder will not recognize the key. Usually a new key will fix the problem. In more serious cases, it's the cylinder itself that's bad and needs replacement.
chip in the key not reading -
polish up the chip conections with steel wool.
if that does not work it will have to goto the shop for new lock cyclinder and key
you either have a bad key...did you try more than one key?
Two other things can be wrong..
1) the igintion cylnder (where ya put the key in) has samll wires that sense the pellet in the keys for your car, and often they break, and the cylnder has to be replaced.
2) the passkey module has gone bad.
Either of these problems can be fixed by any compatent mechanic that has cadillac experience.
If you have a key with a resister in it , it may be the ignition cylinder itself. If you do not have a resister in your key , you should check for bad body grounds along the fenders and firewall. You can also try disconnecting the battery negative cable for 20 secs. and retry.
