Catalysis of the reaction: ammonium hydroxide + 3 NAD(P)+ + H2O = NO2(-) (nitrite) + 3 NAD(P)H + 3 H+. Catalysis of an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction in which a nitrogenous group, excluding NH and NH2 groups, acts as a hydrogen or electron donor and reduces NAD or NADP. Catalysis of an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction in which a nitrogenous group, excluding NH and NH2 groups, acts as a hydrogen or electron donor and reduces a hydrogen or electron acceptor.
