Abstract: A two way electrical connector for an automotive vehicle includes a terminal insulator having at least one passage to receive at least one socket terminal staked wire, a wedge member cooperating with the terminal insulator to retain the at least one socket terminal staked wire in the at least one passage, a ring seal disposed about the terminal insulator and an end cap cooperating with the terminal insulator to retain the ring seal between the terminal insulator and the end cap.

Abstract: An electrical connector for a vehicle has a receptacle base formed with preferably five receptacles for receiving complementary electrical pins on a vehicle power switch. The power switch is associated with a power component, e.g., a power window, power sun roof, or power door lock, for operating the power component. The receptacle base is reciprocatingly engaged with a hollow locking cover, and is movable between a locked position, wherein opposed keeper ribs on the receptacle base snappingly engage respective cavities formed on the locking cover, and an unlocked position, wherein the ribs are distanced from the cavities. Opposed retainer ears are formed on the locking cover for snappingly engaging complementary structure on the power switch to hold the power switch in a fixed relationship with the receptacle base when the locking cover is in the locked position.

Abstract: A high pressure fuel hose for disposition between a tubular stem on a fluid connector on a canister in a fuel tank and tubular stem on a fluid connector on a cover for the fuel tank spaced from the canister. Each of the tubular stems has a fir-tree barb thereon and the high pressure hose includes a convoluted flexible body and a pair of relatively stiff cylindrical ends each of which has a pair of annular inside beads and three annular outside beads between the convoluted body and the inside beads. When the cylindrical ends are press fitted over the fir-tree barbs with force applied at the outside beads, the inside bead seat behind annular shoulders on the barbs for enhanced retention.
