Abstract
A connector is provided with a first housing and a cover. The first housing has a terminal receiving chamber in which a first terminal is received, and is fitted to a second housing. The second housing has a second terminal conducted and connected to the first terminal when the first housing is fitted to the second housing. The cover has a first engaging portion engageable with the first housing, a second engaging portion engageable with the second housing fitted to the first housing, and a come-out prevention portion for preventing the first terminal from coming out from the terminal receiving chamber. The cover is held to the first housing by an engagement between the first engaging portion and the first housing, and is held to the second housing by an engagement between the second engaging portion and the second housing. Accordingly, the cover is hard to be removed from the first housing, so that the first terminal is securely prevented form being come out from the terminal receiving chamber of the first terminal.
