Abstract
In a wire harness connector body of the type having an end cover with a plurality of terminal openings and a mating seal having a corresponding plurality of terminal openings, a delete plug for insertion into a terminal opening in the cover such that it plugs that terminal opening against the insertion of a terminated wire. The delete plug includes a seal-plugging member which is inserted into a corresponding terminal opening in the seal to maintain the sealed nature of the connector. One or more delete plugs can be added to, moved around, or removed from the cover to reconfigure a basic cover and seal arrangement to accept different numbers or placement of terminated wires.
