A flexible printed circuit (FPC) connector includes an insulating housing (10) receiving contact elements (20) therein, and a slider (40) insertably mounted to the housing. A pair of solder pads (30) are mounted on opposite sides of the housing. The slider forms a pair of latching arms (404) and a pair of latching flukes (405) projecting inwardly from front ends of the latching arms. Each solder pad defines a gap (307) between a first and a second mounting walls (304, 305). A projection (306) is formed on an outer surface of each first mounting wall. When the slider is in a first position, each latching fluke extends into the gap and locks with an edge of the second mounting wall of a corresponding solder pad. When the slider is in a second position, each fluke locks with the projection of the first mounting wall of the corresponding solder pad.
