Abstract: A terminal position assurance device (TPA) generally of a “C-shape” design which fits into a housing for an electrical connector, has two arms including a side portion and a ledge portion, and a back portion. The TPA arms flex such that housing breakage is limited. The inward facing surface of each ledge portion has a narrowly tapered shape. The corresponding housing used has a C-shape opening similarly shaped to the TPA. The TPA has stops that engage the housing such that the TPA device can be inserted into the housing at preset and full-lock positions and will not eject out. At a full-lock position, the TPA fully resides in the housing opening completely. The TPA also has associated pads that reduce associated noise with the housing when it is in service.

Abstract: A connector position assurance (CPA) device for assuring the full engagement of a female connector assembly and a male connector assembly in a connector apparatus, and the connector apparatus having the female connector assembly and the male connector assembly engaged together when the CPA device is at a full-lock position. Prior to the CPA device being at a full-lock position, the female connector assembly, with the CPA device at a pre-lock position therein, enters the male connector assembly for engagement thereto. At such time, protruding members of a flexible member of the female connector assembly enter a side elongated slot of the male connector assembly.
