Abstract
To expand the versatility of the design specification for a vehicle door, a vehicle door latch operation control device includes a controller which operates a latch release actuator to allow the door to open. The controller has a lock/unlock setting portion which sets an unlock state and a lock state for allowing the latch release actuator to operate and prohibiting the latch release actuator from operating in such a manner that establishing the unlock and lock states at the inside of a vehicle is made independent of establishing the unlock and lock states outside the vehicle.
