ABSTRACT:
A first connector housing has a first flexible arm member formed with a hole. A second connector housing has a projection adapted to be engaged with the hole in a case where the second connector housing is fitted with the first connector housing in a first direction. A fitting detection member is attached with the first connector housing such that the first connector housing is movable in the first direction between a first position and a second position. The fitting detection member has a second flexible arm member adapted to be engaged with the first flexible arm member to retain the first connector housing at the first position. The engagement between the first flexible arm member and the second flexible arm member is released to allow the first connector housing to move to the second position, in a case where the first flexible arm member is flexed when the first connector housing is placed at the first position. The engagement between the projection and the hole is released only in a case where the first flexible arm member is flexed when the first connector housing is placed at the second position.
