A harness-side connectorincludes: a connector bodyconnected to a unit-side connector of a hydraulic unit; and a slide locksupported by the connector bodyto be slidable in the upper-lower direction. A sealing clipis attached to the hydraulic unitand the like in the locked state by moving upward while being restricted form movement in a direction intersecting the upper-lower direction. A first clawof the sealing clipis engaged with reinforcing ribsof the hydraulic unit, so that the downward movement of the sealing clipwith respect to the hydraulic unitand the like is restricted. The contact plateof the sealing clipcontacts the slide lockfrom below, so that the downward movement of the slide lockwith respect to the connector bodyis restricted.
