Abstract

The invention relates to a pre-installation assembly for a contact arrangement of a sensor assembly, having a support component, a clamping component, and at least one spring contact pin. The conductive end areas of the at least one spring contact pin are connected with one another and are designed to be axially incompressible and held under an axial spring load between support surfaces that are at a distance from one another. According to the invention, the support component and the clamping component are connected with one another by way of a connection in which the at least one spring contact pin is positioned and held by way of aligned guides in the support component and in the clamping component, with the spring contact pin passing through the guides. In first end section of the at least one spring contact pin is axially supported in the associated guide of the support component, and a second end section of the at least one spring contact pin is axially supported in the associated guide of the clamping component.
