IN order to help you, please provide additional information. 
Is this a first time new installation?

Did you have a picture of the old thermostat and the wires?

Can you upload a picture of the nest back plate with the wires installed?

Did you have a C wire installed in your old thermostat?

Hi folks,

I appreciate the help, Ken.

@dwpeterson5, It appears that your Nest Thermostat isn't getting enough power from your system. I did find a helpful article with some troubleshooting steps for when your device is not turning on.

Please let me know if that helps or if the issue still persists.

Best regards,

Mark
