Abstract
An opening-closing member control device includes a motor that opens and closes an opening-closing member of a vehicle, and a control unit configured to stop the motor when determining that a foreign object has been entrapped by the opening-closing member and reverse the motor when a delay time elapses after stopping the motor. When the control unit determines that entrapment has occurred upon operation of a remote operation switch that is separated from the vehicle, the control unit reverses the motor after the delay time that is shorter than when determining that entrapment has occurred upon operation of a vehicle operation switch that is arranged in the vehicle.
