ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a construction in which an incomplete locking connection between a pair of connector housings is detected by a lock release member. According to the present invention, a cantilever-type flexible locking arm extending forward is provided on a male connector housing, and a lock engagement portion for the flexible locking arm is provided on a female connector housing. A lock release member having a lock release arm is mounted on the female connector housing so as to slide in a forward/rearward direction, and in an incompletely-fitted condition, the lock release member is engaged with the flexible locking arm to be prevented from moving to a predetermined position.
