Claim:
A connector, comprising: a housing ( 10 ) connectable with a mating housing ( 30 ) and being formed with an unlocking portion ( 29 ); a movable member ( 50 ) movably mountable on the housing ( 10 ) and having at least one cam surface ( 54 ) for generating a cam action in cooperation with a follower ( 33 ) on the mating housing ( 30 ) as the movable member ( 50 ) is displaced, a stopper ( 70 ) being formed on the movable member ( 50 ); a resiliently deformable detector ( 80 ) assembled with the movable member ( 50 ) and movable between a standby position (SP) and a detecting position (DP), the stopper ( 70 ) on the movable member ( 50 ) contacting the detector ( 80 ) and preventing the detector ( 80 ) from being pushed from the standby position (SP) to the detecting position (DP) when the housing ( 30 ) is not yet connected properly with the mating housing ( 30 ), the unlocking portion ( 29 ) on the housing ( 10 ) deforming the detector ( 80 ) out of engagement with the stopper ( 70 ) for permitting the detector ( 80 ) to be pushed to the detecting position (DP) when the housing ( 10 ) is connected properly with the mating housing ( 30 ).
