Squidd help wiring lighting Plz!

Squidd could you please help me wire up my ballast, capacitor, and ignitor. I saw a post you had with pics and the equipment looks almost identical to what you have.

I have another post in this section of the forum, a few people have been good enough to try to help, but I have tried wiring this thing several ways and I'm just not getting it.

I would be very appreciative for any advice.

thanks.

So, what are we wireing up..?
Whats the ballast number and whats the bulb...SE or DE..?
I Think I have a pic of the wire diagram from that project floating around some where...
Should be one on your ballast too...

It's a se 100w M90. the ballast says 100 - 0204. The diagram on my ballast has been worn off, but that doesn't really matter cause I can't figure it out anyways. I found a diagram on-line thats about the same as yours and still can't figure it out.

M-90 is a pulse start ballast and does not use capacitor or ignitor..
Should be wired as shown...
Does this look more familiar...?
