Quoted from Completist:

Can also clean up the switch terminals (fibreglass brush works great, but so would a scotch brite pad in this case)

I found this to be my problem so when I cleaned up the terminals with a emery board ( nail file ) it seem to solder 100% better even with my cheap soldering iron.

And tin your soldering gun.

Most switches are mass produced in China. Those terminals suck and need cleaned like mentioned above.
