Abstract
A connector assembly includes a first-connector-housing, an inner-housing, a terminal-stabilizer, and a second-connector-housing. The inner-housing is disposed within a cavity defined by the first-connector-housing. The inner-housing includes a pair of opposed flexible-locks moveable from a locked-position to an unlocked-position. The terminal-stabilizer is disposed within the cavity and movable from a pre-stage-position to a seated-position. The terminal-stabilizer defines a pair of stops configured to engage ends of the opposed flexible-locks when the opposed flexible-locks are in the locked-position. The second-connector-housing includes a pair of unlocking-features configured to move the pair of opposed flexible-locks from the locked-position to the unlocked-position. When the second-connector-housing is mated with the first-connector-housing the pair of unlocking-features move the pair of opposed flexible-locks to the unlocked-position, whereby the pair of stops on the terminal-stabilizer move past the pair of opposed flexible-locks and the second-connector-housing moves the terminal-stabilizer from the pre-stage-position to the seated-position.
