Never mind. Based on my VIN starting with JN8, it is Japan built. So the search continues.
Same issue except on 2003 QX4. My QX4 is Japan built also. Not knowing about the Japan vs. US made situation, I merely ordered a 2003 QX4 replacement master on ebay, it didn't work. The plugs on my wiring fit it alright, but no action on the windows nor locks. Then, I noticed that the back of the switch was green vs clear on my existing defective switch. Nosing around ebay some more I noticed that a Maxima switch in roughly the same years as my QX4 looked the same. So, I ordered it (it was just the switch with the buttons, not the decorative housing) I screwed the new switch into my existing housing and popped the unit back into the door. It worked perfectly. Whoda' ever guessed that some QX4/Path. switches are interchangeable with a Maxima? The conundrum here, I think, is Japan vs. US made. BTW, I could find no Japan-made (clear) switches on ebay when searching for QX4 or Pathfinder, none ... only the green ones. I guess that far more of our models were made here vs. Japan for those years. Just speculating.
Here are some links to the two types of parts. I would have posted pictures but this site doesn't seem to easily accommodate them:
