In a method of manufacturing an electrical harness comprising wires connected to electrical terminals of a plurality of electrical connectors, according to a desired wiring pattern, each terminal comprises a wire connecting portion in the form of a slotted plate formed integrally with a contact portion in the form of an electrical receptacle. The wires are laid out on a wiring layout board with the aid of wire guiding posts to form a desired wiring pattern, with portions of the wires extending through notches in the housings of the connectors. The terminals are then inserted into through openings in the housings so that the wires received in the notches are captured by the slots of the terminals so that electrical connection is made between the terminals and the wires. When the terminals have been inserted into the openings in the housings, the receptacles are in line with the ends of the openings opposite to those through which the terminals were inserted, so that the receptacles can receive male members inserted through the former ends of the openings. The openings in the housings, contain abutments for forcing the wires into the slots of the terminals as the terminals are inserted into the openings. |
