Solder problem trying to fix amp...anyone help please?

[n8te81 10+ year member]

I have a old 4ch amp that I love and I haven't got to use it in awhile cause a couple years back it quit working so I pulled it and heard something rattling around inside. It was a little piece that looks like a small eraser with both little rods pieces on both sides. I soldered it back and the amount worked fine...

My problem is that it only lasts like a week then it breaks off again...is this amp doomed or maybe am I using bad solder or something?

I tried to read some last night and see that maybe I used the wrong kind....
