Abstract
First and second connector housings () are connected by displacing a force multiplying member (). The first housing () includes a pair of detection terminals () and a shorting member (). The shorting member () is displaced between a shorting position where the detection terminals () are shorted and a releasing position where the detection terminals () are released from a shorted state. The force multiplying member () includes a pressing surface () that is parallel to a displacing direction of the force multiplying member (). The pressing surface () displaces the shorting member () to the shorting position in a partly connected state where the two housings () have not reached a completely connected state while displacing the shorting member () to the releasing position when the two housings () reach the completely connected state.
