Abstract
In a connector fitted with a shorting terminal, both sides of an elastic member included in the shorting terminal are respectively provided with abutting parts to form one pair on the left and right, and each of the abutting parts can be independently elastically deformed and also biases two terminals to maintain a shorted state. When the connector fits with a mating connector housing, a short-cancellation member makes contact with a cancellation part and the abutting part is separated from the terminal to cancel the shorted state.
