A connector is attachable to an object having a lock portion. The connector includes a housing and a frame. The housing has a press portion and a support portion. The housing is fixed to the object under an attached state where the connector is attached to the object. The frame has a supported portion, a pressed portion and a locked portion. When the connector is in the attached state, the supported portion is positioned between the pressed portion and the locked portion in a front-rear direction and is supported from below by the support portion in an up-down direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction. Under the attached state, the pressed portion is pressed by the press portion from above. Under the attached state, the locked portion applies a force to the lock portion from below.
