ABSTRACT:
A connector has a front retainer (30) that can be held at a partial or full locking position, engaging portions (38) formed on outer surfaces of locking arms (36) are engaged with partial locks (15) or full locks (16). Thus, even if resilient deforming portions (37) of the locking arms (36) are deformed to widen the spacing therebetween due to a thermal shrinkage at the time of resin-molding, areas of engagement of the engaging portions (38) and the partial locks (15) and those of the engaging portions (38) and the full locks (16) are not reduced. Further, engaged parts of the engaging portions (38) and the partial or full locks (15, 16) are in insertion spaces (14), and the front retainer (30) will not be unlocked by interference of external matter.
