I am not able to get the camera turn on no matter what on my Google nest hub max. It worked for a few days and then stopped working suddenly.

Can you please help?

 

Thanks

So what's the answer here? I've never been able to get the Nest Max display to work and I've done all kinds of resetting and restarting.
