Sealed electronic control module housing with integral terminal carrier design

A sealed restraint control module comprising:

• a terminal carrier comprising a plurality of terminals and a plurality of fastening tabs, wherein the terminals have a first end with a shoulder on a first side of the terminal carrier and a second end on a second side of the terminal carrier with a bend formed a predetermined distance from the second side of the terminal carrier;
• and
• a housing shell having an integral support, wherein the housing shell and the integral support are formed as a single integrated structure, the integral support comprises one or more tiers, each having a plurality of ports through which the second ends of the terminals extend when the terminal carrier is assembled to the housing shell, with the shoulders on the first end of the terminals providing support to the terminals for a press fit force applied to the first end of the terminals during assembly to a printed circuit board.
