If your car stereo is always hot at all times it shouldn't go out or has connectivity when at "start" Turning the key from "on" to "start" temporarily cuts out the power connectivity. Stereos are not designed to have power at "start" because pretty much the starter uses much amperage and voltage from the battery the seconds while the engine is being cranked

Why is your car stereo not coming on?

If the stereo unit does not light up check if the fuse on its power circuit has blown. You'll need to get hold of the car owner's manual - or a Haynes maintenance book - for the right car make, model and year, to find out where the fuse box is and which fuse number feeds the stereo. If that fuse is ok, then it's possible another fuse has blown inside the stereo unit itself.If the stereo lights up but it is asking for a security code, it usually means its power was disconnected for too long and the anti-theft protection system kicked-in when the power came back on. You'll need to enter the code to get it working again or go to a car radio specialist for help.
