VEHICLE OPEN/CLOSE PORTION CONTROL APPARATUS, AND VEHICLE OPEN/CLOSE PORTION CONTROL METHOD

The present invention provides a control device at an opening/closing section of a vehicle and a method for controlling the opening/closing section of the vehicle for controlling a motor so that pinch at the opening/closing section is determined accurately while its constitution is very simple. The control device includes a pinch determination device that is mounted to a motor for opening/closing an opening/closing section of a vehicle and determines pinch of a foreign matter based on a change in the rotation number of the motor, and demagnetization pulse applying means for supplying power with reverse polarity to motor in a pulse-like manner at completion of the opening/closing.
