Ok here is the Deal. I bought a Proxima DP5600 off ebay for a Really good price of 60 bucks, he told me that the Bulb was bad, Ok no problem i will find another one and Replace it, well the Bulb is not the Problem, The Ballast is. It will try to Start the Bulb but all i get is a Hissing Sound. Most likly a Cap going out or out, Ok i have 2 Options that i can Choose,
1: Buy a Pulse Start Ballast for a 250W Metal Halide Bulb for 60 Bucks and rig ( ******
racist text censored by moderator team) ( Sorry DIY LOLOL) something on the Out side of the Projector to Hold the Bulb.
2: Find a Cheap Ballast for a Proxima and try to wire it in.
Well i when for the 2nd one, Wrong Move.
Here is the Problem now. I got a 150W Ballast off ebay for a Proxima DX2, for 9 Bucks and Working. I cant Figure this wiring out.
There is 2 Pices to this and 3 Computer Boards.
1 the Main power input that must Reduce the Voltag or something
2 this board has 1 Connector with about 12 pins that must go to the Main board to Supply Power to Operate the Board
3 the Board that has the Ballast on it that Drives the Bulb.
Ok on the 3rd Board there is 5 Wires, Pretty Simple Right , Wrong.
There is 2 Big ones, Brown and Blue, One is marked + the Other is marked -, The problem with these is that i dont no what the Voltage and if it is DC or AC, I dont see any Bridge Diodes in this system to Change the AC to DC.
There is 3 other Wires in a Connector also Brown, Red, Black, These are about 16-18G wires Pretty small.
I just need a Diagram or Something to Figure out how to Hook this Ballast up to my DP5600. Or how i can use this to Make a Power Supply for a 120W or 150W Bulb, Witch i have both of these the 120W is a UHP and woudl rather use it instead of the 150W or 250W.
Or if anyone noes what is wrong with the Stock 250W board or even a Diagram for it that would be great

Guys, racisim and hard language are not aceptible in this forum, please refrain yourself from doing so. SAFTEY WARNING!!!!! Projector ballasts must be of the right spec for the given bulb used. Failure to do so may contain a serious voltage and fire threat to human life.
This operation should only be carried out buy a fully trained personel!!!

I've eliminated some racist language and nuked a post. Don't even THINK of using terms like that again here. This is not SinBin stuff, it's to the level of banning. And I will do so if I see anything else like that again.
Sorry about that. 
I have took Many classes on HV Electrical Systems. I right now have a 800,000Volt Teslia Coil in my garage. This Bad boy would kill very fast.
Is there any DIY Ballast's or Anything that could help me.
I am thinking about go out and Buying me A Pulse Start Ballast for the Wholesale supply store. But would like to get this working so i dont have to spend more money.
