A couple problems I can see right away:

1. you used "cno" for both mappings, including the second one. To call one mapping from the other, you cannot use "cno". "cno" explicitly tells Vim NOT to expand other mappings when executing the mapping.
2. For the first mapping, "cno" will not trigger anyway, because you are trying to execute it in the command-line window. The command-line window can be in normal or insert mode just like any other window, it is NOT a special command-line mode. Command-line mappings do not apply to the command-line-window.

Why not solve both problems, by creating just a single mapping? If it's too complex for a one-liner, then use and <expr> mapping and write a function.
