A lever type connector wherein a pair of housings are interconnected by turning a lever attached to one of the housings, comprises: a housing containing a plurality of terminals each of which is adapted to be detachably coupled to each of a plurality of mating terminals contained in a mating housing and drawing out an electric wire clamped in each terminal through a wire-drawing surface; a pair of support axles formed on the housing; a U-shaped lever rotatably and detachably mounted on the housing by coupling the pair of support axles in a pair of bearing holes formed in opposed leg portions of the lever, respectively; a cover detachably mounted on the wire-drawing surface of the housing to protect the electric wires; and means for positioning the cover at a given mounting position on the housing, the positioning means including engaging portions formed on the housing and cover. The lever is selectively mounted on the housing in a reversible manner upon coupling between the pairs of support axles and bearing holes.
