PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing a sensor with a terminal capable of holding and positioning easily and surely a sensing element, and fixing the sensing element so that a pitch dimension between two terminal members becomes a prescribed value. SOLUTION: This method includes: a punching process for forming by being punched from a plated metal thin plate material, a comb-shaped intermediate 60 comprising a plurality of parallel narrow belt bodies 1, 1 and a connection piece part 20 for connecting sequentially each middle part in the longitudinal direction N of the narrow belt body 1, and including tilted tip parts 11, 11 tilted so that each tip of a set of the narrow belt bodies 1, 1 is brought close mutually by using adjacent narrow belt bodies 1, 1 as one set relative to each pair; a crossed clamping part forming process for bending, thereafter, the connection piece part 20 between the set of the narrow belt bodies 1, 1, and allowing each tilted tip part 11, 11 of the set of the narrow belt bodies 1, 1 to cross each other, to thereby form a clamping part 50 for holding the sensing element 2; and a cutting process for cutting and removing the connection piece part 20 after holding the sensing element 2 by the clamping part 50, to thereby form a pair of terminal members comprising the set of the narrow belt bodies 1, 1.
