Abstract
In a deflector device, a magnet is rotated when a deflector body is rotated, and a magnetic sensor also detects a rotational position of the magnet. Moreover, an interior of a housing body is partitioned by a motor base into a vehicle width direction outside of the interior and a vehicle width direction inside of the interior, with the magnet housed on the vehicle width direction outside of the interior of the housing body. The magnetic sensor is housed on the vehicle width direction inside of the interior of the housing body. This accordingly enables foreign matter ingression from the vehicle width direction outside of the interior of the housing body into the vehicle width direction inside thereof to be suppressed by the motor base, enabling foreign matter to be suppressed from reaching the magnetic sensor.
