Abstract
An electrical connector having terminals at different heights includes: a housing having a vertical wall provided with a first hole and a second hole on the counter mating side thereof; a first terminal press-fitted into the first hole; and a second terminal press-fitted into the second hole. A recessed portion is provided between the first hole and the second hole in the vertical wall. A first press-fitting portion is press-fitted into the vertical wall by coming into pressure contact with, among the wall surfaces constituting the first hole in the vertical wall, the wall surfaces on the two width direction sides, and a second press-fitting portion is press-fitted into the vertical wall by coming into pressure contact with, among the wall surfaces constituting the second hole in the vertical wall, the wall surfaces on the two width direction sides and the wall surfaces on the two height direction sides.
