For example, the first receiving hole 8 and the second receiving hole 10 to which both end terminals, e.g. 7 and 9, of the electric wire 12' are attached are simultaneously lit.
Since the sizes and shapes are different so that the terminals 9 and 9 are not attached to the receiving hole 8, there is no possibility of misalignment even if the light sources 3, 3' are turned on at the same time. However, light source 3.
By lighting lamps with different colors at the terminals 3', the color of a particular lamp may correspond to the type of the terminal 7.9, or one light source 3 may be lit continuously and the other light source 3
It is also a good idea to make it easier to understand the order in which the terminals are installed by lighting them intermittently. "Effects of the Invention" As mentioned above, the present invention has the effect of reliably and easily attaching terminals to a connector.
