It sounds like your Kenwood DPX502BT is experiencing a power issue. There are a few possible reasons why this might be happening:

The power fuse is blown. This is the most likely reason why the radio is shutting down. To check the power fuse, you will need to open the radio and look for a small, glass tube with two metal prongs. If the glass tube is blackened or cracked, it is blown and will need to be replaced.

The power supply is faulty. The power supply is the part of the radio that converts the car's electrical power into the power that the radio needs to operate. If the power supply is faulty, it may not be able to provide enough power to the radio, causing it to shut down.

The radio is overheating. The radio has a built-in heat sink that helps to dissipate heat. If the radio is overheating, the heat sink may not be able to keep up, causing the radio to shut down.

To fix the power issue, you will need to identify the cause of the problem and take the appropriate action. If the power fuse is blown, you will need to replace it. If the power supply is faulty, you will need to replace it. If the radio is overheating, you may need to clean the heat sink or relocate the radio to a cooler location.

Here are some additional tips:

If you are not comfortable working on electronics, you can take the radio to a qualified technician for repair.

If you are replacing the power fuse, be sure to use a fuse with the correct amperage rating.

If you are replacing the power supply, be sure to purchase a power supply that is compatible with your radio.

If you are cleaning the heat sink, be sure to use a soft cloth and a mild cleaning solution.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
