You might want to check the connectors on the other switches there. I had to move a switch since the placement was rather odd. When I was moving the wires I found that 3 out of 4 crimp on connectors had not been fully compressed and the wires were loose. This is one of the causes for heat as arcing starts. It's also a dandy way to cause a fire.
