<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a joint connector for a wire harness which is stably secured on the outer peripheral surface of a wire harness body, with many electric wires shorted among others, and also to provide a wire harness including the connector. Ž<P>SOLUTION: The joint connector JC includes a conductor for shorting, and a plurality of connector housings 40A and 40B for holding the same. The conductor for shorting includes, as one body, a plurality of terminals made of plastically bendable metal plate and divided into as many groups as the number of connector housings 40A and 40B, and a short-circuit part 34 extended in the array direction to be connected to respective terminals. The connector housings 40A and 40B are adjacent to each other to hold the terminals belonging to respective groups and a portion of the short-circuit part connected to the terminals. The short-circuit part 34 interposed between them constitutes a connection part 34c, and plastic bending of the connection part 34c changes a relative angle between the connector housings 40A and 40B.
