... or a short under the can. It's easy to get enough solder up the leads to contact the can where you can't see it. If there's too much solder, you could get that symptom. I'd pull the crystal, clean the holes carefully with solder-wick, and reinstall with attention not to over-use the solder. Note, you can most likely leave the ground wires on the cans, just treat it/them as another lead of the (now three-legged) crystal.
