CA 2276917
A connector latch is provided which includes a connector housing which extends through an engagement member. The engagement member is movable from one end of the connector housing to the other end. When moved to one end, the engagement member cams flexible latch arms of the connector housing towards the longitudinal axis thereof in a locked mode. When moved to the opposite end, the flexible latch arms reslide away from such axis in an unlocked mode. An electrical connector which includes such a connector latch is also provided. In such an embodiment, when male and female contacts are properly engaged, movement of the engagement member in the locked mode causes protuberances which extend from the flexible latch arms to extend into a connector housing groove thereby preventing disconnection of the contacts.
