ABSTRACT:
In a connector examination instrument, a connector support member and an examination instrument body are provided for movement toward and away from each other, and examination pins are slidably mounted within the examination instrument body, and are spring biased toward the connector support member. Each of the examination pins includes a conducting contact surface for contact with an associated metal terminal within a connector, and an incomplete insertion-detecting projection for insertion into a flexure space for an elastic retaining piece portion for retaining the metal terminal. Each of the examination pins comprises a shank, having an exposed distal end serving as the conducting contact surface, and an insulative shaped member which is fixedly secured to the distal end portion of the shank, and has the incomplete insertion-detecting projection.
