I also had a similar problem with the M9. When I turn it on the potentiometers change doesn't work and change the sets itself randomly. When I try to set them up, they don't work. Only the model encoder works. After 1 hour warming on, the pots start to work but not the full range, just 20% up and down. After several hours with it on, the pots begin to work, but it's not possible to set them at the lowest position (first 10% of the range).
I opened and checked the voltages at the moment I turned it on and after several hours nothing had changed. The voltages were a little out: 12.8 / -11.6 / 4.8 / 3.2 v.
I cleaned all pcb and pots very well, checked all flat cables, everything is fine. Power supply sends 10.5 volts A/C.
I believe it can be a capacitor. I will try to change the electrolytic ones to see if I get any success.
If anyone finds a solution please share with us.
