Question.....when I turn on the turn signals in either direction both indicators on the dash board light up at the same time. Any idea what the problem might be?

not sure what year you have but my 75 has a left and right but it's wired as a single indicator. In this post (link) there is a diagram, also I believe I have read on here somewhere how you can split it so they work left and right.

Your 75 has an earlier tach, then. Only the 70-73 cars (and some early 74s) had silver-cone gauges, which are the ones with left and right blinker indicators.

If the OP has an early 74 car, that's the way it is supposed to be. If he has a mid-74 or later car, his tach has been replaced with an earlier one.

If he has a 70-73 car, then it's time to troubleshoot the turn signal circuit.
