I"m having an issue with kitchen lights. I'm in an apartment unit that used a light fixture with 2 t8 flourescnet bulbs (with electronic intant start ballast). I want to replace them with led bulbs. I removed the ballast and direct wired the tombstones (shunted), and the lights arn't coming on.
Heres the bulb im trying to install

heres the bulbs currently in the fixture:
attached is the direct wire config: 2 Blue wires on hot (black) one red wire on neutral (white)
the tombstones, being shunted, and 1 blue wire coming from each Left tombstone, whereas the right side has a red wire coming from one tombstone, but a blue with black striped wire connecting the 2.
