Default Headlights -died?

I normally lurk on the C-5 site. I have a friend with a 2004 C-6 with a problem. The car has approx. 14000 miles on the clock. They were traveling back home and stopped to change drivers. It was just starting to get dark. They turned off the lights and shut off the engine. A few minutes later then they went to leave, the lights would not turn on. I know little about the C-6 electrical system, so I'm asking for your input.

No such animal as an '04 C6. Is it a C5 or a 2005 C6?
Either way, check the fuses first.

I tried to post this on the C-6 site. How did it get back here? What did I do wrong?

If it is a 2004 then it is a C5, if it is newer than that it is a C6.
