Abstract
In a shift device, a P position, an R position, an N position, and a D position are set on a housing, and when an electrostatic sheet detects a touch operation on the P position, the R position, the N position, or the D position and a photosensor detects a pressing operation on the housing, a shift range of a transmission is changed. Therefore, the number of components can be reduced.
