A terminal structure of a wiring harness for automobile use having a profound anticorrosive effect. A terminal member is fixed to a terminal portion of a coated electric wire such that a crimping portion that the member includes at its one end is crimped around a coating portion of the wire in a terminal region of the wire. A resin member completely covers at least entire outer surfaces of an exposed region at an end portion of the crimping portion and its vicinal region, and is made from a material mainly containing a thermoplastic polyamide resin, and having a tensile lap-shear strength of lapped aluminums of 6 N/mmor more in accordance with the JIS K6850, an elongation of 100% or more in accordance with the ASTM D-1708, and a water absorption of 1.0% or less in accordance with the JIS K7209.
