Old Thermostat works, but Google Nest says no power to R wire

Old Hunter Thermostat works but when I try to install the Google Nest, it says no power to the R wire (I tried both the Rc and the Rh). I went back and reinstalled the one thermostat to make sure it's drawing power and it does, so it doesn't seem to be a fuse issue. Any ideas? 

 

Here's a link to the old thermostat which still works fine: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Hunter-Programmable-Thermostat/3466788

Thank you for your reply -- here's the original wiring, which still works (just checked that both AC and heating are functioning)
