Abstract
An electrical connector for connection to a fuel injector in a motor vehicle includes a terminal insulator having at least one passage to receive at least one box terminal staked wire and a connector position assurance member cooperating with the terminal insulator to detect and indicate an unmated condition of the terminal insulator to a mating connector of the fuel injector wherein the connector position assurance member includes a preload stop finger engageable with the terminal insulator to prevent the connector position assurance member from prematurely locking to the mating connector.
