I find it easier to just go into the fuse box (this will be the one in the cabin, not under the hood) and read the labels to see what sound like they could control the thing that isn't working, and then just pull it out and give it a look under some light.

Oh, that's not good.
I have a 2001, but in mine there are two under the hood (one on pass, one on driver side) and one to the left of the steering wheel, yeah. Typically, things under the hood have fuses that don't often open, and they control things not in the cabin.
I am sure it is a fuse that is inside the vehicle, and that there is only that one additional compartment (sometimes they hide them behind the glove box, but I am 99% sure there is only the one).
I would bet that it is something funny like "accessories."
While replacing my stereo, I wasn't receiving power to the device, so I replaced a fuse for like accessories or amp or something that I wouldn't think mattered, but it fixed the issue!

they may be LED, but it shouldn't affect how many fuses they are on. Out of logic, I am sure Nissan threw the cabin's lights and/or dash lights on one fuse.
Anyway, best of luck finding that fuse!

Are you sure they are supposed to light up? They don't in my 2006. In 2008, they finally installed lights in the steering wheel switches.
