Patent attributes
A connector assembly is provided with a connector body that is configured to be removably connected with a corresponding mating connector body. The connector body has a deflectable latching member configured to secure the connector body to the corresponding mating connector body. The connector assembly also includes a connector position assurance (CPA) device that is slideably attached to the connector body and is moveable from a pre-staged position that allows the latching member to be deflected to a full-staged position that inhibits deflection of the latching member. The latching member defines a first window and a second window. A first portion of the CPA device is visible in the first window when the CPA device is in the pre-staged position and a second portion of the CPA device is visible in the second window when the CPA device is in the full-staged position.
