Ballast Wiring Diagram

[TaterSalad]

Hello all, new to the group and my first post.  Thanks for the add Jim!

Attached is my "cheat sheet" ballast wiring diagram as well as the one that comes from Fun-Tronics.

I hope this is of help to someone.

One thing to mention is that the ballast FunTronics sells only works when replacing it with the 2 lead switch.  The original Leviton 382 (4 Wire Switch) will NOT work with a new ballast.

Actually the old push-to-start 4-wire (manual lamp startrr)  type switch is a double function switch with a common push button, again, typically the switch has two sets of wires with different colors, black is usually the “on/off” section, while the alternate color (usually blue or red) is the momentary normally open switch, you can use the black pair as a regular old on/off switch while not hooking up the alternate pair (there is no voltage on that pair if it’s left open/unconnected anyway) so now your old 4-wire switch is just an on/off button... hope this helps
