Hello Jordan, nice to meet you! I am sorry to hear about your Fuse issue. I am assuming that you are inquiring about the Main Fusible link.
Here is a video which gives you the general idea on how it's secured

You got it. If it's the Fusible link that is bolted in. Then yes, this will certainly affect the starter operation

I do find on these older Nissan's back in the day they installed allot of remote starts so if a battery goes dead or a main fusible link blow or depending on the fuses blown, it could cause it to activate where it can keep the starter from engaging

Sometimes you don't know until the battery goes dead. But I guess we will find out when your mechanic takes a look at it!
