ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns an electrical connector, in particular for use between a socket (46) and an electrical control device, for inflatable restraining systems in motor vehicles. The connector has a housing (10,12) for accommodating electrical cables (28), as well as contact springs (24) connected to said cables, the contact springs serving to accommodate contact pins (50) of the associated socket with priming cap (trigger device); spring locking arms (42a,b) on the housing for attaching the housing to the socket; and a locking element (16) which, after insertion in a corresponding housing opening (56), secures the locking arms against unintentional release and in the locking position releases a short-circuiting link (52) between the contact pins of the socket, the locking arms being coupled to flexible housing sections (38a,b) in the direction of movement of the locking arms.
