Abstract

There are provided a resilient engaging piece to the terminal metal part provided through the resilient displacement permissible space opposite to the terminal accommodating cavity formed at a connector body portion of the connector, and the insertion detecting body corresponding to the resilient displacement permissible space at the main frame portion of the insertion detecting member for terminal metal parts and a pair of manipulating pieces each at opposite sides thereof. The insertion detecting member for terminal metal parts is caused to move freely to enable the main frame portion thereof to come into contact with the inside wall surface of the hood portion. The pair of manipulating pieces are exposed at both sides of the housing body portion through the window of the hood portion at the provisional engaging position, and the insertion detecting body can be moved to enter into the resilient displacement permissible space at the formal engaging position.
