That's how it's done on the 370Z. Should be the same procedure for your Altima.

According to the fuse box cover diagram you supplied, the fuse is the 10A labeled "STEERING LOCK". It's near the middle of all the fuses.
Edit: Looking at the first pic of the fuses, yes, it is the top red (10A) fuse of the set of two red fuses and two blue (15A) fuses in the bottom left corner.

No panel to remove on the 370Z. See if you can track down the Factory Service Manual (FSM) for your car.
