Abstract:
An electrical connector assembly having a housing, a terminal alignment plate and an independent secondary lock member. The terminal alignment plate has secondary lock engagement surfaces. The independent secondary lock member has terminal alignment plate engagement surfaces. When the independent secondary lock member is in the open position, the terminal alignment plate engagement surfaces engage the secondary lock engagement surfaces of the terminal alignment plate to retain the terminal alignment plate in the protecting position and prevent the terminal alignment plate from being moved to the fully inserted position. When the independent secondary lock member is in the closed position, the terminal alignment plate engagement surfaces do not engage the secondary lock engagement surfaces of the terminal alignment plate, allowing the terminal alignment plate to be moved to the fully inserted position.

Claim (Index 9):
An electrical connector assembly comprising:\n a housing having a plurality of terminals mounted in the housing with mating portions projecting therefrom, the housing having recesses for receiving portions of a terminal alignment member; the terminal alignment member having a plurality of terminal alignment member apertures for receiving the mating portions of the terminals, the terminal alignment member having movable member engagement surfaces, the movable member engagement surfaces positioned in the recesses of the housing, the terminal alignment member being movably mounted on the housing between a protecting position in which the terminal alignment member is positioned proximate distal ends of the terminals and a fully inserted position in which the terminal alignment member is positioned away from the distal ends of the terminals; a movable member having terminal alignment member engagement surfaces, the movable member being movably mounted on the housing between a first position and a second position, the terminal alignment member engagement surfaces are positioned in the recesses of the housing when the movable member is in the first position, the terminal alignment member engagement surfaces are positioned outside of the recesses of the housing when the movable member is in the second position; wherein when the movable member is in the first position, the terminal alignment member engagement surfaces engage the movable member engagement surfaces of the terminal alignment member to retain the terminal alignment member in the protecting position and prevent the terminal alignment member from being moved to the fully inserted position.
