Abstract
A connection detecting member () is mounted on a support () of a lock arm () to be integrally resiliently displaceable, and relatively movable with respect to the support () between an initial position and a detection position. A resilient locking piece () of the connection detecting member () restricts a movement of the connection detecting member () to the detection position by contacting a front stop () of the lock arm () in a state where both housings () are not connected or are connected incompletely. The first housing () is provided with a movement restricting portion () for restricting a movement of the connection detecting member () toward the detection position by contact with the connection detecting member () when the resilient locking piece () is displaced in a separating direction from the front stop () due to curved deformation of the lock arm ().
