A wiring harness plug connector. The wiring harness plug connector encompasses a contact carrier and at least one electrical lead. The contact carrier has at least one passthrough conduit for the at least one electrical lead. The at least one electrical lead is passed through the passthrough conduit in an insertion direction. The contact carrier has, in front of the at least one passthrough conduit when viewed in the insertion direction, a partition that surrounds a sealing space. Provision is made that the sealing space is filled with a sealant in such a way, and that the sealant at least locally fills up the at least one passthrough conduit in such a way, that the at least one electrical lead is surrounded in fluid-tight fashion.
A wiring harness plug connector, comprising:
A method for manufacturing a fluid-tight wiring harness plug connector, the wiring harness plug connector having a contact carrier, the contact carrier having at least one passthrough conduit for passage of at least one electrical lead, the contact carrier having, in front of the at least one passthrough conduit when viewed in an insertion direction, a partition that surrounds a sealing space, the method comprising:
An auxiliary element for insertion into a wiring harness plug connector and suitable for preventing the removal of a contact element that is connected to an electrical lead and is slid into the wiring harness plug connector, the auxiliary element having a base element and at least two self-supporting arms spaced apart from one another and protruding transversely from the base element, the at least two arms each having at least one sealing lip, the sealing lips of adjacent arms facing toward one another and being configured in such a way that an interstice between adjacent arms is at least 80% closed.
