PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fluid quick connector coupling an endform having a raised flange in a bore of a fluid operative element. SOLUTION: In one aspect of the fluid connector, a retainer in the form of a plate has opposed edges forming channels movably mounting the plate on a housing. Side tabs releasably lock the retainer in a moved position to latch the endform in the housing. In another aspect, the retainer includes spring arms which bias the retainer to the second position. The retainer is held in the first position by a lip of a top hat extending outward from the housing. The top hat moves longitudinally inward upon engagement with an endform to free the spring arms to automatically move the retainer to the second position latching the endform in the housing.
