Claim:
1. An insulated wire-terminal connection structure comprising: an insulated wire formed by covering a conductor with an insulating cover, the insulated wire having a wire tip formed by stripping an front end of the insulating cover to expose the conductor; and a crimp terminal having a pressure-bonding section that allows at least pressure-bonding of the wire tip, the insulated wire and the crimp terminal being pressure-bonded to each other via the pressure-bonding section, wherein a tip-side of an outer circumferential face of the insulating cover has a sign indicating that the wire tip is inserted into the pressure-bonding section by a predetermined length according to an insertion length of the wire tip into the pressure-bonding section for reference when inserting the wire tip into the pressure-bonding section for pressure-bonding, the sign is made of a material that is more flexible than the insulating cover, formed by stripping the insulating cover by a length less than the internal length of the pressure-bonding section and forming the sign after the stripping at a position located at a predetermined distance from a conductor tip face of the exposed conductor, arranged to cover the outer circumferential face of the insulating cover in a circumferential direction so as to be wide in a long length direction of the insulated wire, has a width including a position at a distance of the internal length of the pressure-bonding section from a tip face of the wire tip, the width corresponding to a range in which a conductor tip of the exposed conductor is pressure-bonded to the pressure-bonding section in a desired conductive state, and the wire tip inserted up to the sign is pressure-bonded to the pressure-bonding section and an area of the pressure-bonding section of the crimp terminal is pressed such that inner surfaces of the pressure-bonding section in the area contact with each other and the area of the pressure-bonding section of the crimp terminal is sealed, the area of the pressure-bonding section being in front of the tip face of the wire tip on a side of the crimp terminal.
