Thermostat spinning but not controlling the menus

This is my problem. My dial spins but nothing on the screen works. The screen is on but can't control the menus. It worked fine  before a month ago. Now it only responds to the Nest app. But can't use the setup menu to change the WiFi settings. Can I please get some help

Hello Mikerbarns,

I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble with this. No worries, we'll check this out. Just a few questions: Have you incurred any damage to the Nest thermostat display? Have you try to force restart the Nest thermostat display? If not, Here’s how:
 

1. Press and hold the thermostat ring until the display turns off.

2. Release the thermostat ring.

3.Press the thermostat ring once to begin the startup process again.

 

I look forward to your response.


Thanks,
Edmond

Hi there, 

Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.
