1. An electrical connector assembly, comprising:
a wire; a terminal having a first end, a second end secured to the wire, and a terminal body between the first and second ends, said terminal body defining a pair of terminal wings protruding from opposite side surfaces of the terminal body; and a connector body having a terminal receiving cavity formed therein and having a first opening configured for insertion of the terminal therethrough and having a second opening opposite the first opening configured to receive a mating terminal therethrough, said terminal receiving cavity defined in part by a bottom wall, a top wall opposing the bottom wall, and two opposed side walls adjacent the top and bottom walls, each of said side walls defining terminal guides protruding into the terminal receiving cavity, said terminal guides having guide rails and a guide slots beneath the guide rails, wherein the guide rails urge the pair of terminal wings toward the top wall as the terminal and the wire are inserted within the terminal receiving cavity through the first opening until the pair of terminal wings reach an end of the guide rails, and wherein the pair of terminal wings enter open ends of the guide slots as the wire is withdrawn from the terminal receiving cavity and the pair of terminal wings traverse the guide slots until the pair of terminal wings engage closed ends of the guide slots, thereby preventing the terminal from being inadvertently withdrawn from the terminal receiving cavity through the first opening. |
