An electrical connector is disclosed for mounting to a substrate such as a printed circuit board. The connector includes an insulating housing having a peripheral flange defining a front face. A conductive shield is positionable against the front face of the housing. A conductive board lock member is positionable on the housing for commoning the conductive shield to a ground trace on the printed circuit board. The board lock member includes a body portion and a pair of legs positionable through a locking hole in the printed circuit board. One of the legs is bent from an end edge of the body portion, and the other leg is bent out of an opening in the body portion. A method is disclosed for stamping and forming the conductive board lock member out of sheet metal material.
