Abstract
A shift device includes: a shift switching member including valley parts corresponding to a shift position; a positioning member provided to establish the shift position in a state of being fitted into any one of the valley parts; a motor including a rotor and a stator and driving the shift switching member; a speed reduction mechanism section rotating the shift switching member in a state in which a rotation speed transmitted from the motor is reduced; a rotor rotational angle sensor detecting a rotational angle of the rotor; and an output shaft rotational angle sensor detecting a rotational angle of the shift switching member. The shift device detects the number of rotations of the motor based on association between output values of the output shaft rotational angle sensor and the rotor rotational angle sensor.
