I changed the ballast today and the light continues to turn off after about 15 minutes of operation. Do i need to get a new light or is there another thing i can try?

I'm not familiar with your model, but MH tend to be very simple. Have you tried to clean the unit? If it has covers, remove them and clean inside of it. Make sure the lamp connections are also clean and corrosion free.
