ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly has first and second housings (150, 10). Terminal fittings (112) are inserted into cavities (11) of the second housing (10) and are locked partially by locks formed in the second housing (10). A slider (30) is mounted in second housing (10) and engages a cam (43) in the first housing (150) to generate a cam action that helps to connect the housings (10, 150). The slider (30) has at least one retaining portion (136) that secondarily locks properly inserted terminal fittings (112) in the second housing (10). An inability to move the slider (30) provides an indication that at least one terminal fitting (112) is not inserted properly.
