A connector comprising a terminal, a housing that accommodates the terminal, and a retainer that is attached to the housing,
- wherein the housing includes:
- a cavity that extends in a front-rear direction, a mounting hole that intersects the cavity and is open in one surface of the housing, and locking portions provided on a pair of side surfaces of the housing that intersect the one surface and face left and right directions,
- the terminal is disposed in the cavity,
- the retainer includes:
- a base portion that is placed in the mounting hole through the opening in the one surface;
- a pair of side portions that protrude from the base portion and face the pair of side surfaces;
- locked portions that are provided on the pair of side portions;
- and a retaining portion that is positioned between the pair of side portions in the left-right direction and protrudes from the base portion,
- the locking portions lock the locked portions, the retainer is held on the housing, and the retaining portion locks the terminal to prevent the terminal from coming out from the cavity to the rear,
- the base portion includes a pair of jig engagement portions at positions on both left and right sides of an inner surface on the cavity side, and
- the housing includes a pair of jig receiving portions, which face the pair of jig engagement portions, at positions on both sides in the left-right direction on the one surface.
