ABSTRACT:
Terminal fittings (21A,21B) are inserted into cavities (45) of a housing (40) from behind and are partly locked by metal locks (28). A cover (70) is mounted on the rear surface of the housing (40), and a detector (100) is insertable through the rear surface of the mounted cover (70) for detecting whether the housing (40) and a mating housing (11) are connected properly. The cover (70) has an opening (87) for exposing the terminal fittings (21A,21B), and the detector (100) has a pushing portion (110) insertable through the opening (87). The pushing portion (110) pushes any insufficiently inserted terminal fittings (21A,21B) to proper insertion positions as the detector (100) is inserted to a full locking position.
