Are you getting 2 sources of power from the back of the head unit where it first shorted? You should get constant 12V on 1 plus ACC on the other. Colours are usually yellow (constant), Red (ACC). Like wabbit said, check both sides of the fuse as 1 sides the feed side. If your getting power to the back of the deck, pull the fuse you think is for the deck, should also control cig ligter etc... IF you still get power on the 2 power pins behind the deck it's be rewired, and hopefully fuses elswhere.
