ABSTRACT:
A connector including a plurality of terminals, a housing having a plurality of cavities, and a front holder to be inserted into the cavities. Each of the terminals has a resilient portion which forces the terminal up in a direction perpendicular to a direction of insertion of the terminal when the terminal is inserted into a proper position in the cavity. A limitation portion is provided in each of the cavities, and the limitation portion forces the terminal down in a direction perpendicular to the direction of insertion of the terminal until the terminal is inserted into the proper position in the cavity. The front holder has a plurality of push arms arranged like teeth of a comb, and when each of the terminals is inserted into the proper position in the associated cavity, each of the push arms is inserted into a space formed by the terminal, forced up by the resilient portion, and a cavity wall. When any of the terminals is not inserted into the proper position in the cavity, the associated push arm abuts against the terminal, thereby pushing this terminal out of the cavity.
