How to rewire a fluorescent light ballast with a jumper?
Old ballast - Two red wires wired to the two sockets on the right end. ONE yellow wire wired directly to one socket on the other end with a jumper connecting to the other socket. Apparently, the ballast came with the lighting kit because nothing was spliced except for the power and neutral. The wires from inside the ballast went directly into the sockets.
New ballast -
The wiring diagram is on the box the ballast came in as well as the number and type of tubes it is designed to lite. If they match what you have, and your question is how to interrupt the old wires and attach the new ones, then this is what you do. TURN OFF THE POWER to the fixture. Then cut ALL the wires as close to the old ballast as possible. Remove the ballast and install the new one. Then strip back *about*1/2" of insulation from the old ballast's wires that are still in the fixture, and if you have the correct replacement ballast, you will be able to scotch lock (also called wire nuts, see link for picture) the wires back together using the colors one for one. Black to black, white to white, red to red, etc. You will most likely need the small blue ones for the ballast wires and the orange ones for the black-white power wires. That's about it. Tuck the wires together inside the cover and you're done. If I have misunderstood the problem, I'm sorry, but this is what I surmised from your question.
