Even if an elastic force that tends to rise from 14 is applied, the terminal portion 13 of the flexible aggregated wiring 12 can always be brought into close contact with the mounting surface 14 of the flexible aggregated wiring connector 11. That is, since the width d between the locking hooks 17 and 17 is narrower than the width D between the locking holes 12a and 12b, the terminal portion 13 bends. At this time, the direction in which the terminal portion 13 bends is forced to the placement surface 14 side by the protrusions 14 b at both ends of the placement surface 14.
