A method for manufacturing a linkage terminal mounted in a housing of a joint connector is disclosed. The method comprises a step of providing first and second terminal elements. Each terminal element includes a strip-shaped carrier and terminals integral with the carrier. The terminals are arranged at equal intervals along a longitudinal direction of the carrier and extend generally perpendicularly from the carrier. The carrier is wound in a reel. The method further comprises a step of unwinding the reel and shifting the first and second terminal elements relative to each other in the longitudinal directions of the carriers to stack the first and second terminal elements. The method further comprises a steps of welding the carriers of the first and second terminal elements intermittently along the longitudinal directions of the carriers.
