ABSTRACT:
A double-retaining connector includes a connector housing having an elastic terminal-retaining lance 6', and a spacer 3' which is inserted into the connector housing to prevent the terminal retaining lance from being flexed, and abuts against the terminal retaining lance when a terminal is half inserted, thereby detecting the half-inserted condition of the terminal. A jig rod insertion groove 5' for canceling the locking of the terminal retaining lance is formed in the spacer 3'. The jig rod insertion groove 5' is offset with respect to the center of the terminal retaining lance 6' in a direction of a width of the lance. A gap between one side surface 6b, of the terminal retaining lance 6' and a side surface of the spacer 3' or a side surface of the connector housing, which is opposed to the one side surface 6b', is increased, so that a width of the jig insertion groove 5' is increased.
