Abstract

A method for manufacturing an electrical connector and an electrical connector manufactured by the same. The method includes: separately stamping a first terminal and a second terminal, where the first terminal has a first welding portion, and the second terminal has a second welding portion; insert-molding the first terminal in a first body and a second body, and insert-molding the second terminal in a third body and a fourth body; assembling and locating the first body and the third body, and assembling and locating the second body and the fourth body; and synchronously bending the first terminal and the second terminal. Relative locations of the first welding portion and the second welding portion are unchanged, which ensures that the first welding portion and the second welding portion are located at predetermined locations, ensures good welding of the electrical connector, and ensures a reliable electrical connection.
