The connector terminal holding mechanism for reliably holding a terminal including an upright standing engagement portion and an engagement shoulder located forward of the upright standing engagement portion in a connector housing with a rear holder including an engagement portion adapted to be engaged with the upright standing engagement portion is constructed in the improved state in such a manner that a plurality of guide rails each including a raised portion having a height in excess of that of the upright standing engagement portion are formed in the connector housing, and the rear holder merges into an engagement projection including a plurality of slidable portions adapted to be slidably engaged with the guide rails and a plurality of engagement portions adapted to be engaged with a shoulder portion of a box-shaped portion on the terminal.
