Abstract
There is provided a shift range switching apparatus that can perform appropriate fail-safe control when a power source supplied to an electronically controlled shift range switching apparatus is instantaneously interrupted. When due to instantaneous interruption of a power source supplied to the shift range switching apparatus, the shift range switching apparatus is reactivated, a target shift range is determined based on a rotation position of a detent plate detected by a detent position sensor immediately after the reactivation, and the rotation position of the detent plate is controlled.
