I have a new M6 Mark II that overall is working great. However, I’ve noticed that settings are intermittently getting spontaneously changed.
I've had mine almost three years, and I started seeing this only recently, with the front dial (the one around the shutter button).
I went as far as disabling this button when shooting, and that has helped. I still see unintended changes when reviewing photos, which confirmed for me that the front dial is doing something funky.
There are replacement parts that can be purchased on the Web (like a top plate).
M6ii Top Plate (with buttons)
This is what I'd do if the Contact Cleaner fix didn't work.
Note: I have some really good "LPS Plastic Safe" contact cleaner (LPS 4620). Careful, there are a zillion different other LPS formulations, and some are VERY harsh (akin to brake cleaner).
Best of luck!
