The present invention provides a wire harness joint including a wiring circuit assembly and an insulation film or insulation films applied to the wiring circuit assembly, either on one or both sides. The wiring circuit assembly includes a number of flexible flat cables (FFC) disposed separately so that each one will not intersect another.

Each of the insulation films is formed with windows at positions corresponding to the connections.
