Abstract: An electrical connector assembly adapted to mate with a device. The connector assembly includes a housing with a primary latch assembly that engages the device, and a connection position assurance (CPA) component that is telescopically engageable over an outer surface of the housing. The connection position assurance component includes a secondary latch assembly that engages the primary latch assembly. The primary latch assembly includes a latching portion that may be actuated by a lever, and the secondary latch assembly prevents the lever from actuating the latching portion when the electrical connector assembly is mounted to the device.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flexible air expansion compensator including an air chamber. The air expansion compensator mates with a terminal cavity of a sealed electrical connector to compensate for heating and cooling of air trapped in a device that contains the sealed electrical connector.

Abstract: A diaphragm seal and sealing assembly for isolating terminal cavities of an electrical connector system in a vehicle. The sealing assembly includes a male connector housing, a diaphragm seal, and a female connector housing. The diaphragm seal includes a floor and a plurality of terminal compression sealing members that extend from the floor of the seal. The terminal compression sealing members have faces with apertures therein, where male blade terminals of the system project through the apertures. The female connector housing compresses the sealing members, and the members isolate the blade terminals from each other. The diaphragm seal also includes at least one retainer button to connect the floor of the seal with the male connector housing of the electrical connector system.

Abstract: An electrical connector for connection to a fuel injector in a motor vehicle includes a terminal insulator having at least one passage to receive at least one box terminal staked wire and a connector position assurance member cooperating with the terminal insulator to detect and indicate an unmated condition of the terminal insulator to a mating connector of the fuel injector wherein the connector position assurance member includes a preload stop finger engageable with the terminal insulator to prevent the connector position assurance member from prematurely locking to the mating connector.
