Abstract
A vehicle seat device includes a lock mechanism, a drive source, which has an output portion, a cancellation detection portion, which detects the cancellation of restriction by the lock mechanism, and a restriction detection portion, which detects restriction by the lock mechanism. When cancelling restriction on the basis of operation of the operation switch, current is supplied to the drive source such that the output portion moves in the forward direction until the cancellation detection portion has detected cancellation, and when the cancellation has been detected, the supply of current to the drive source is stopped. When performing the restriction on the basis of operation of the operation switch, current is supplied to the drive source such that the output portion moves in the reverse direction until the restriction detection portion has detected restriction, and when restriction has been detected, the supply of current to the drive source is stopped.
