It is a capacitor, spike suppression. It even has its values on it
2.2uF 110 Volts.

Why do I have to make the tools to finish the job? More time then money.

that i saw thats what made me think it wasnt a ballast resistor as the measurement was in farads not ohms

That would be a 2.2 uF capacitor to stop spikes and naughtyness
