The upper and lower retainers include upper cam pins and lower cam pins projecting in a pin projecting direction intersecting the retainer moving direction and different from the terminal inserting direction. The upper and lower cam pins are fit into upper cam grooves and lower cam grooves provided in a jig and move in the upper and lower cam grooves, whereby the upper and lower retainers move between the full locking position and the partial locking position.
