The method disclosed herein begins with a molded housing (13 or 31). In one embodiment (20) the molded housing (13) has a ground shield (14) that is formed by thermally spraying a metallic conductive material onto the housing (13). Electrical connections are then made to link an electronic circuit on a printed circuit board assembly (21) to the ground shield (14). In another embodiment (30), the molded housing (31) has a plurality of elements (such as an indented channel (32), extrusions (33), a slot connector (34), and a notch (35)) that are thermally sprayed in selected areas to form a plurality of connective elements required by the electronic circuit of the printed circuit board assembly.
