If you have a headlight malfunction your adaptive headlights will not work from either side.

I had the same problem, most likely your ballast(control unit) is dead. I would remove the passenger light assembly to make sure it's completely dry. Then remove the ballast from the bottom and check for moisture and corrosion. Good luck
