Dual actinics stopped working

[pcpope]

We have an Odyssea Fixture with 3-250 Watt halides and 2-96Watt dual actinics. The dual actinics have stopped working. I try cutting the wire back about 6 inches and reconnecting thinking it might be a short, but that didn't help. Anyone have a suggestion on what to look for next. I don't know if there are any fuses in the fixture. All suggestions appreciated. Thank you.

could be the ballast, but if there was a short it wouldnt necessarily be 6" back. a short can be any where in the system

i would replace all the ballast on that fixture. because those ballast are just junk.

I also would suggest checking the ballast as well.

I guess the ballast is the best choice for you. you can find them not too expensive online
