Abstract

A vehicle control device configured to perform transmission of a drive signal for driving an antenna and reception of a detection signal from a sensor detection unit configured to detect a user operation by common wire, and a controller configured to control the antenna driving unit to transmit the drive signal. The controller is configured to determine whether the determination process is being performed by the sensor detection signal determination unit each when the antenna driving unit transmits the drive signal. The controller is configured to cause the antenna driving unit to transmit the drive signal after the sensor detection signal determination unit finishes the determination process in a case where the controller determines that the determination process is being performed by the sensor detection signal determination unit.
