There are usually two power wires for an after market unit. One provides continuous power (for functions like saving your memory settings) and the other provides power when the car is on. The two wires in the head unit connect to different wires in the cars wiring harness. I suspect that you either didn’t connect the continuous power wire or connected to the wrong place in the car’s wiring loom.

If you still have the instructions from your installation that will help you sort out which wire to rearrange. If not, start searching YouTube for a good Boxster head unit installation video.

Good luck.
