Abstract
A detector () movable from an initial position to a detection position is mounted on a housing main body (). The detector () includes a resilient arm () resiliently deformable in a height direction. The resilient arm () contacts a lock arm () from behind before the housing main body () is connected to a mating housing () to prevent a forward movement at an initial position. When the housing main body () is properly connected to the mating housing (), the detector () reaches a detection position where the resilient arm () enters a deformation space () by being pushed forward from the initial position. At the initial position, the resilient arm () applies a pre-load to the lock arm () in the height direction.
