ANTI-IDLING DEVICE AND ANTI-IDLING FUNCTION DISABLING METHOD

An idling stop apparatus is provided which can prevent a voltage of a battery from being lowered even when a microcomputer is reset. In an idling stop apparatus 1a, when a reset condition is established, reset information indicating that the reset condition is established is stored in a latch circuit 3a, and a microcomputer 2 disables an idling stop function when the reset information is stored. The reset information is stored in the latch circuit 3a even when the microcomputer 2 is being reset or even after the microcomputer is reset. Accordingly, the microcomputer 2 after the reset can disable the idling stop function. As a result, it is possible to prevent the voltage of the battery 51 from being lowered due to the idling stop function.
