sounds like uve knock a power wire while "live" to your stereo case - firsttime u were lucky, second time not quite - probably blown some internal resistors on the head unit - will need to be fixed by a specialist car audio person - hard to find - not expensive though - theck car fuses and fuse on stereo first though
