Your post doesn't indicate what camera you have or how old it is, but your most obvious self-help step is to unplug it and plug it in again to see if it comes back on.
You could also try a restart, and then, if necessary, a factory reset: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9252162?hl=en
You could also try contacting Google Nest Support via this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

It's the nest outdoor camera. I have tried a restart I think .but no joy .Still no light on camera.
Could you explain exactly where the reset button is .
I see a pinhead hole on front of camera and was trying that but so unsure.

I've never had to do a reset. The link I provided above for restarts/resets has photos or instructions of where the reset button is located on each camera. For the "Nest Cam (wired)" it says "Locate the reset hole on the bottom of the camera head. It’s between the power cord and the camera neck." For the IQ camera it is different.

Hey there,
I am terribly sorry to hear that you're having this issue! I would love to assist you with this issue. If you are having issues with your Nest Cam or Nest Doorbell, I would suggest that you first start by restarting it.
Restart: Keeps all your settings, and it should reconnect to the same Wi-Fi network. This is helpful if it ever becomes frozen, has trouble reconnecting to the internet, or isn't working normally.
Best regards,
Brad

Hi Janthadeus
Thank you for your suggestions.
I figured out the power surge part of the lead isn't working not sure why .
I changed the fuse in plug ,no difference.
I've plugged it in without it and although the lead isn't as long it works .
Do I need a power surge on this system ?
Thanks Lisa

Hey folks!
lisaclff9, thanks for sharing that, I appreciate you for trying. You can definitely plug your camera into a power surge or plug it in directly to a wall outlet. If the camera powers on and it works normally as expected that'll do it.
Best,
