An electrical connector includes a housing defining a chamber with a top wall, bottom wall, and side walls arranged to form multiple locations, each configured to receive one electrical terminal along a reception direction. Each electrical terminal has opposing first and second surfaces with corresponding first and second locking holes. Within each location, a latch extends over the bottom wall and cooperates with both locking holes to secure the terminal in the reception direction. The top wall features an opening through which a retainer is pivotally mounted about an axis parallel to the side walls. The retainer moves between a locked position, engaging the opening and holding the terminals via protrusions that engage both locking holes, and an unlocked position, disengaged from the opening, thereby securing the set of electrical terminals in the first direction within the housing.
