Help with QHY9M - sudden change of Gain/Offset

Hello everyone
I have a QHY9S mono camera which I bought new a year or so ago.
I set the gain and offset (14/75) using a method from Craig Stark (I think) and all was good, used the camera for months and months no problems at all.
Then one night I noticed that something was very wrong with my subs. Long story short my Gain and Offset which I had set months ago was now suddenly way off. I re-did the setup and came up with numbers (17/105) that were very different from the originals.
What would cause this? Power supply problems or similar?
Now my images are not good at all, lots of noise and strange pixels.

Trying to troubleshoot the problem to work out if the DC201 power is faulty, the 9 pin cable or the camera itself.
Is the someone near to me (Ormeau Hills Gold Coast/South Brisbane) that I could borrow a power supply and or 9 pin cable from to test?

Thank you for reading, any help appreciated
Jeremy
