- the electronic module comprises at least one fork contact which is inserted into the electronics receptacle in the housing and which carries the circuit board, wherein the at least one connector tongue is inserted through the connector receptacle in the fork contact.
- the electronic module will usually have a plurality of connector tabs, which in turn are electrically connected via a plurality of fork contacts with the circuit board.
- the at least one fork contact is inserted into the electronic receptacle and pressed into the housing. This can be done together with the circuit board or separately. Subsequently, the at least one connector tongue is inserted (or shot) in the connector receptacle and pressed or rammed into the fork contact. As a result, the fork contact is fixed by the connector tongue in the housing.
- the housing can thus be injected without inserts, so it can be a pure plastic part without injection. This can be the cost of the housing to reduce. Further, the fork contacts or the tolerances can compensate for tolerances. If several types of electronic modules are built, the same fork contacts and / or connector tongues can be used together with different housings. Also, the same circuit board in
