Abstract: A connector assembly includes a connector body, a corresponding mating connector body, and a connection position assurance (CPA) device. The connector body includes a deflectable latching member and at least one outer detent feature located on an outer surface of the connector body. The corresponding mating connector body is configured to be removably connected with the connector body, wherein the deflectable latching member is configured to secure the connector body to the corresponding mating connector body. The CPA device is slidably positioned adjacent the connector body and moveable from a pre-stage position to a full-stage position, wherein the CPA device interacts with the at least one outer detent feature located on the outer surface of the connector body to deflect the connector body towards the corresponding mating connector body.
