Claim:
1. A control device for a vehicle, said vehicle including a plurality of electric apparatuses mounted in said vehicle, a shift switching mechanism setting a shift position corresponding to a traveling state of said vehicle to one of a plurality of shift positions by driving of an actuator in response to a switching signal, a power supply supplying electric power to said plurality of electric apparatuses, and a power supply relay collectively setting the electric power from said power supply to said plurality of electric apparatuses to one of a supply state and a cut-off state in response to manipulation by a driver, wherein the supply state is a state when the vehicle can start moving, said plurality of shift positions including at least a parking position, the control device comprising: an electronic control unit (ECU) configured with executable program logic, to perform: detecting a state of a manipulation member to be manipulated by said driver before said supply state is set by said power supply relay; and controlling said actuator to correct or learn an actuation location of said actuator corresponding to said parking position, when (i) a state where said manipulation member has been manipulated by said driver before said supply state is set by said power supply relay is detected, (ii) the shift position in said shift switching mechanism is said parking position, and (iii) a door lock mechanism releases a lock by manipulation of said manipulation member, wherein said door lock mechanism releases said lock based on a lock release signal generated by manipulation of said manipulation member.
