Are you sure the globes are good?
I always grab some when I'm in the wreckers and majority of the time they are blown. Multimeter checked globes and that they are getting power?

As stupid as it sounds, you can put the globes in back to front. If you fit them and they don't go, try taking the out and rotating them 180deg and refitting them before you bin them as duds. I refurbish the occasional climate control unit and discovered this little quirk along the way.
