This is the proper numbering of the L49B. The mains connect to terminal 3 and terminal 5 (being the 2nd and third pins), both are occupied by pins. I would assume that since I did plug it in and turn it on when I first bought it and nothing exploded that it was wired correctly unless it blew up in the past. there was no response when i turned it on. nothing lit up, nothing hummed, it was dead One thing is the main is not connected to the #1 pin. I cant tell from the ballast tube diagram you sent me which are active and which are dummy pins.
