Original Abstract Submitted

It is aimed to enable more reliable water stopping at a boundary part of an elastic water-stop member. A wiring module is provided with a wiring member including a linear wiring member, and an elastic water-stop member mounted on a part in a longitudinal direction of the wiring member. The elastic water-stop member includes a first divided member and a second divided member. The first divided member is formed with a first partially surrounding portion. The second divided member is formed with a second partially surrounding portion. The first partially surrounding portion is formed with a pair of first reinforcing wall portions and a first lip portion. The second partially surrounding portion is formed with a pair of second reinforcing wall portions and a second lip portion.
