Can 2 – 18 watt fluorescent tubes be wired of a 36watt ballast and if so would you have a wiring diagram for this?
Many thanks

I’m putting in a 4 light double ballast fixture I have 2 black and 2 white + the ground from the fixture. From the switch I have 2 house wires each containing 1 white and 1 black what is connected to what. I tried the 2 b fix wires with the b house wires and the 2 w fix wires with the 2 w house wires and nothing. Can you tell me the corrrect tie in.
Thanks Craig

Rick, try buing a new starter , there only a couple bucks, dont even bother with a ballest, you be better buying a whole new fixture.

I am hoping someone can assist me with a problem I am having with the florescent overhead fixture in my garage-it has completely stopped working. I have tried new bulbs, but that didn’t work-someone suggested I try a new starter or ballast. How would I know which one to try first? Any help would be most appreciated. Oh one more thing, I have tested the current going to the fixture and it is fine.
Thanks in advance for your help
