There is no power button. Simply press the shutter release button halfway to turn the camera on. The camera will shut off after a few seconds of inactivity.
I am a novice photographer, have a nikon 2020 af for 15yrs & it just stopped taking pics. Everything else works
did you clean all contacts? never use anything sharp in or closet to a camera. To clean contacts in a camera and on the batteries, just use a dry cloth and a cotton swab. My 20 year old camera's (same brand and a canon) still work as the first day I used them. they are always stored dry and without a battery, when I don't use the for a longer period.
Recheck the manual (yes most manuals from Nikon are still online) if you did setup the camera correct.
How do I clean the DX contacts/censors
If you think the contacts are dirty or oxidised, you could try to clean them with a cotton swap and a prop of contact oil. But be sure you can remove all the oil you apply.
Be aware to move the contacts as little as possible. You are allowed to pus them in, but move them sideways can cause them to lose the correct position or worse they can be broken.
It is great to see, Nikon USA, still has lots of manuals of the elder SLR camera's
