ABSTRACT:
A dielectric housing (11) of an electrical connector (10) comprises a contact-receiving passageway (13) in which an electrical contact (25') is secured by a resilient housing lance (14). A locking member (20, 25) is movable along the passageway (13) and has a projection (21) that is positioned in a space (15) between the passageway wall (13a) and the housing lance (14) to prevent the housing lance from moving outwardly. A window (30, 31, 32, 33) is in the housing (11) and exposes a part (20b, 25b) of the locking member (20, 25) when the projection (21) is positioned in the space (15) thereby indicating the securing of the contact in the contact-receiving passageway.
