Default ballasts

I have a system that worked. Had a lamp and a ballast. It quit
working. I replaced lamp and ballast, check everything except the voltage
between the ends of the tube. The filiments light. My question, its a two lamp
ballast that has two unused wires. Having only one lamp connected, could this
cause a reduced starting voltage across the lamp. I am suspecting
some weak link and not a hard core problem.
