Abstract: Disclosed is a manufacturing method of a gas sensor. The gas sensor has a plate-shaped sensor element with at least one pair of electrode pads, a separator disposed around the sensor element, and at least one pair of opposed metal terminals held in an insertion hole of the separator and electrically connected at contact regions thereof to the respective electrode pads. The manufacturing method includes mounting the metal terminals in the insertion hole of the separator with the use of a mounting jig. The mounting jig has a flat portion interposed between the contact regions of the metal terminals during the mounting of the metal terminals in the separator so as to prevent contact and entanglement of the opposed metal terminals.
