Abstract:
1. A sliding member controller comprising: a drive motor for sliding a sliding member in a slidable range from a first lock end to a second lock end; operating area setting means which sets, as an operating area of the sliding member, a predetermined range in the slidable range with respect to one of the first and second lock ends; drive motor control means which controls the drive motor such that an operating range of the sliding member by the drive motor falls within the operating area; stop detecting means which detects a stop of the sliding member; stop information storage means which stores stop information representing occurrence of the stop on an assumption that there is a possibility of occurrence of positional deviation in the set operating area when the stop detecting means detects the stop of the sliding member in the operating area close to the first lock end; and positional deviation determination means which determines whether or not the positional deviation occurs in the set operating area based on a stop condition when the sliding member is operated again to come into contact with the second lock end and is stopped in a state where the stop information storage means stores the stop information.
