I reset or restart IDL, still it does not work. Sometimes the plot is fine after I try some different settings (e.g. before plotting my two panels side by side, I have to plot 4 panels with multiplot,[2,2] and then go back).

This is a classic case of getting !P.MULTI all screwed up.
Take out that last MULTIPLOT command before the PS_END
and add an !P.MULTI=0 *after* PS_END. That will probably
help a LOT. :-)
