Abstract
A shift device includes a shift switching member including a plurality of valley portions; a positioning member configured to establish a shift position; a motor configured to drive the shift switching member; a rotor rotation angle sensor; and an output shaft rotation angle sensor configured to detect a rotation angle of the shift switching member. When the positioning member is moved to pass through the plurality of valley portions, the rotation angle of the motor corresponding to the valley bottom of each of the plurality of valley portions is acquired by, based on output values of the rotor rotation angle sensor and the output shaft rotation angle sensor, and a design value associated with the output value of the output shaft rotation angle sensor and the shift positions, detecting the valley bottom at an end portion among the valley portions and reversing the movement of the positioning member.
