Abstract
A plug including a housing that defines a cavity and an opening into the cavity. A flange extends radially inwardly into the opening of the housing. A tip assembly is received by the opening of the housing. The tip assembly includes a positive terminal that extends between a proximal portion in the cavity of the housing and a distal portion outside of the housing for electrical connection with the vehicle accessory. The tip assembly includes a sleeve that is sealingly disposed about the proximal portion of the positive terminal. The sleeve includes a projection that extends radially outwardly therefrom adjacent to the proximal portion of the positive terminal in sealing engagement with the flange of the housing to sealingly interconnect the tip assembly and the housing for preventing liquids from flowing from outside of the housing between the positive terminal and the sleeve into the cavity of the housing.
