A connector device for use in connecting various electric components of an implantable hearing assistance system. In one embodiment, the connector has a lead housing defining at least one lead channel. The lead is sealed within the lead channel to prevent the intrusion of problematic fluids from inhibiting electrical communication within the connector. The lead channel can be vented and flushed, in one embodiment, by a non-coring needle through a self-sealing resilient plug disposed within a venting bore.
