TEK light fixture failing to ignite a bulb? (resolved)

[argan]

i just got 4 new 36" t5 bulbs recently, 3 URI super actinic and 1 giesmann powerchrome. They were all working when i cleaned the reflectors and tried them out.

I set the lights on the bracing overnight and ran them for about 4 hours. So far so good.

In the morning i went to turn them on and only one switch seemed to work.
so i take them off the tank and flip them over and see that the ballast is igniting all 4 bulbs, but only 2 stay on.

so i switch bulbs around, thinking i got a faulty bulb, But nope. Whichever bulb is in that slot wont fire completly.

it seems to be the connection got damp from the water surface? I thought there were no bubbles where it was sitting but guess i was wrong.

Think it well be fine if it dries out and stays dry?
