ABSTRACT:
A shift lever operating position judging device includes a position sensor having switches. Each switch is arranged to be at an ON state within a different range in a shift lever operating range, and two or three switches out of the plurality of switches are at the ON state in a different combination in response to each shift lever operating position. The device further includes a calculated value calculating means reading a sensor signal representing the ON or OFF state of the switches and calculating a calculated value based upon the signal, and a first operating position judging means for judging the shift lever position corresponding to the calculated value following a first operating position judgment reference defining the calculated value at the event that all of the plurality of switches have been at a normal condition.
