Connector with means for retaining terminals and verifying seating

An electrical connector of the type comprising an insulative housing having a mating face and an opposed conductor receiving face, the mating face being defined by an endwall, two rows of terminal receiving cavities extending between said faces, each cavity receiving a terminal therein from said conductor receiving face, each cavity communicating with an open mouth in said endwall, said housing having two adjacent rows of resilient latch arms therein, each latch arm flanking a respective cavity and cooperating with a terminal therein to retain same therein when fully inserted, each arm having a distal end toward said mating face, each arm being separated from the adjacent arm by an interstice in the housing, each arm deflecting into the interstice during insertion of a terminal, and returning toward the respective cavity when the terminal is fully inserted, the improvement comprising, wedge means received in the mating face of said housing between said rows of cavities, said wedge means fitting in said interstices between adjacent latch arms.
