VHO Problems/Questions? Please Help A Brother Out!

Ok I got a ARO Electronic Ballast with end caps from a local reefer. The set up looks brandnew, but when I hooked it all up today, I got nothing. This ballast will do up to 16-17ft of bulbs. I have 2 x 6ft on it. The wiring harness has everything prewired and the endcaps say bulb1 and bulb 2 on each set. I have it all hooked up and still nothing.

I am new to VHO's, but if one of the bulbes is bad will the whole thing not work?

Thanks.

Make sure the bulbs are fully seated in the endcaps.
