PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connector allowing a locked state to be surely confirmed by impact sound. SOLUTION: A lock arm 30 of a female housing 20 is provided with a first hitting part 35 and a second hitting part 37 for hitting the inside surface of a hood part 11 with a time lag with respect to each other in response to an elastic return operation of the lock arm 30. According to such a structure, a plurality of times of impact sounds are generated with time intervals in response to the lock completion of both housings 10 and 20. Thereby, a worker can confirm the locked state by distinguishing characteristic impact sounds even in an environment of which the circumference is noisy. In addition, since the hitting parts 35 and 37 are formed integrally with the lock arm 30, the locked state can surely be confirmed without increasing the number of components.
