An object of the present invention is to guarantee the insertion of terminal fittings to proper positions with reliability. Terminal fittings 21A, 21 B are inserted into cavities 45 of a housing 40 from behind and are partly locked by metal locking portions 28. A cover 70 is mounted on the rear surface of the housing 40, and a detecting member 100 for detecting whether or not the housing 40 and a mating housing 11 are properly connected is insertable through the rear surface of the mounted cover 70. The cover 70 is formed with an opening 87 for exposing the rear ends of female connecting portions 22 of the terminal fittings 21A, 21B backward, and the detecting member 100 is formed with a pressing portion 110 insertable through the opening 87. Even if the terminal fittings 21A, 21 B are left partly inserted despite the fact that the cover 70 is properly mounted, the pushing portion 110 pushes the rear ends of the female connecting portions 22 through the opening 87 to push the terminal fittings 21A, 21 B to proper insertion positions as the detecting member 100 is inserted to a full locking position. |
