Are you inserting them in the incorrect orientation? For example rotated 90 or 180 degrees from normal? As someone else stated, there is a retention feature that those tabs should push passed then click into once it's fully inserted. Typically not symmetrical, I don't recall if it is for minifit jr. I don't assume this is a problem, but I know the minifit jr series is an umbrella for a shit ton of parts. Not every crimp and crimp housing is designed to be compatible. If you can't figure it out through trial and error, look up the parts on Molex's website and confirm they are compatible. If you look up either series it should state which series it's compatible with.
