Abstract
A shift-by-wire system includes an actuator, a detent plate, a detent spring, a control unit, and a display device. The control unit includes a first position learning unit, a second position learning unit, and a power-on determination unit. When the power-on determination unit determines that the power on is the post-instantaneous interruption on while the vehicle power is turned on, the first position learning unit learns the first reference position or the second position learning unit learns the second reference position, (i) in a case where the display device still displays the N-range after the target-range determination unit determines the target range to the R-range while the display device displays the N-range or (ii) in a case where the display device displays the N-range after the target-range determination unit determines the target range to the N-range while the display device displays the R-range.
