Abstract
An electrical connector assembly includes a connector body, a plurality of terminals arranged within the connector body, and a rotatable terminal lock. The plurality of terminals each include an elastic terminal latch fixing the terminal in an installed position within the connector body. The terminal lock is rotatably connected to the connector body between an unlocked position and a locked position. In the unlocked position a first portion of the terminal lock biases each of the terminal latches into a release state whereby the terminals may be removed from connector body in a removal direction. In the locked position a second portion of the terminal lock opposes each of the terminals in the removal direction.
