Abstract:
1. A vehicle braking control device, which controls a plurality of electric brake devices, each of which corresponds to one of a plurality of wheels provided in a vehicle, wherein each electric brake device includes a motor and is configured to apply braking force in accordance with a current value for the motor to the corresponding wheel, the vehicle braking control device comprising: a temperature obtaining portion, which obtains a temperature of each motor; a determination portion, which determines whether the motors include an overheated motor, which has the obtained temperature greater than or equal to a temperature reference value set as a determination criterion to determine whether the motor tends to be overheated; and a motor control portion, wherein, when any one of the motors is determined to be the overheated motor, the motor control portion performs a motor protection control for reducing a current value for the overheated motor at a more gradual gradient in a case where the temperature of the overheated motor is low than in a case where the temperature of the overheated motor is high.
