Abstract
It is aimed to improve a holding force for holding a retainer on a housing. A female connector (F) includes a female housing (), female terminal fittings () to be inserted into the female housing () from behind, and a retainer () mounted on the female housing (). The retainer () is movable in a direction intersecting an inserting direction of the female terminal fittings () between a partial locking position where insertion of the female terminal fittings () into the female housing () is allowed and a full locking position where the female terminal fittings () inserted into the female housing () are retained. The female housing () is formed with displacement restricting portions (). The retainer () is formed with hooking portions () capable of coming into contact with the displacement restricting portions () from front when the retainer () is at the full locking position.
