A two-piece connector for battery jumper cables wherein the connector portions each indicate the positive and negative battery terminals to which the cables from the connector are to be connected. The connector further includes a two state LED device which provides a green light when the cables are connected to a battery with polarity in the manner stated on the connector and a red light when the polarity is reversed. The circuitry, therefore, is contained directly in each connector half. The connector halves are hermaphroditic so that they can not be connected in reverse polarity condition.

An improved compliant section (30) for a terminal connectable to a circuit board (54), the compliant section (30) having legs (32) with outer edges (34) thereof forming selected shapes axially therealong and an elongate hole (38) having a selected shape stamped transversely through the terminal separating the legs (32) and defined between inwardly facing edges (36) thereof. The selected shapes of the leg outer edges (34) are continuous surfaces, first diverging then converging toward an insertion end (40) of the terminal and having a widest dimension at a selected axial location. The hole (38) has first and second ends (42, 44) and a transverse median M at a selected axial location. The hole (38) is offset axially with respect to outer edges (34) of the compliant section (30) such that the transverse median M of the hole (38) is staggered axially with respect to the widest dimension of the outer edges (34) of legs (32) and such that the width of each leg (32) between outer and inner edges (34, 36) at the first end (42) of the hole (38) is less than the width of each leg (32) at the opposite second end (44) of the hole (38).

An electrical connector (10) includes a housing (12) and a plurality of right angled terminals (70), each disposed in a respective terminal receiving passageway (34) thereof. The body portion (76) of the terminals includes a first push surface (78) proximate a first connecting section (72), the first push surface (78) being adapted to cooperate with a push surface (48) along a wall of a respective passageway (34) when the connector (10) is mounted to the circuit board (102). The body portion (76) of at least a portion of the plurality of terminals (70) includes a second push surface (92) proximate a second or board connecting section (94), the second push surface (92) being adapted to cooperate with a second housing push surface (60) on a housing wall proximate the connector mounting face (18). When the connector (10) is mounted to the board (102) by applying force to a top of said housing (12), the housing walls push against both terminal body portions (78, 92) to urge said second connecting portions (94) into force fit relationship within corresponding apertures (104) of the circuit board (102), thereby pushing the terminals (70) at two spaced locations and keeping the terminals (70) stabilized and in axial alignment as the connector (10) is mounted to the board (102).
