John,

I have an 04 4.8 and I don't think there's a difference between our models.

They are automatically on when you have the light switch turned all the way left (auto position).

You can verify that they are working if these ALL happen:

1) When you turn the light switch all the way left the green light should be solid not blinking. If it's blinking, there's some kind of prob (maybe not adaptive related though).

2) When you start your car at night you should see the lights go through a series of motions. Something like this -The lights fire up and are aimed straight, then you'll see them point down, then back up to the start position. If it doesn't do this then, again, something's wrong.

3) At a stop try this. Turn your steering wheel slowly all the way to your right. The lights should follow and point to the right also. If not, well ... you know.

Hope that helps.
