ABSTRACT:
A support for a connector to be inspected and an inspection device body are disposed to be freely movable with respect to a base, connector engaging pins which go into the connector to be inspected are fixed to the base side within the support, and a plurality of inspection pins are arranged in a row in the inspection device body with their respective leading ends projected. For inspection, the inspection pins are moved backward as contacted with the terminal fitting of the connector to be inspected to pass electricity through a circuit in the inspection device body and the connector engaging pins work to detect the terminal fitting in the incompletely inserted state and move the incompletely inserted terminal fitting into the completely inserted position as the connector is moved. By constructing as described above, the incompletely inserted terminal fitting is detected when inspecting conductivity of the connector terminal fitting, and the incompletely inserted terminal fitting is forced to move into the completely inserted state, thereby making it possible to prevent the terminal fitting from coming off.
