Abstract
An electrical connector comprises a thermoplastic connector body, a plurality of electrical terminals which are attached to a plurality of insulated conductor wires, an elastomeric seal, a thermoplastic backshell, a connector position assurance device and a thermoplastic cap. The elastomeric seal provides both conductor wire and interface seals. The backshell includes movable clam shells which gather the conductor wires in a bundle in the closed position. The connector position assurance device cooperates with one of the clam shells and a release lever to insure that the electrical connector is properly latched to a mating connector.
