Sounds like so circuit board controller is fried or shorted. Check the FSM and trace wires in it to see if you can find any thing to help you out.

Nissan tends to build thier relays into the switch. So if you can rule out any shorts, I would look into replacing the turn signal/headlight switch assembly.
