Patent ID: 6904999

Claim:
A vehicular steering control device comprising: an input portion coupled to a steering wheel that is operated by a driver; an output portion drivingly connected to steered wheels; a steering transmission ratio change device that changes a steering transmission ratio by causing the input portion and the output portion to rotate relative to each other by an actuator that rotationally operates in association with the steering wheel; an electric connection mechanism that supplies the actuator with electric power from an external side; and a restriction device that sets a restricted relative rotational angle to be created by the actuator in one lateral direction equal to or smaller than a difference between a permissible rotational angle to be defined by the electric connection mechanism in the other lateral direction and a maximum possible rotational angle of the output portion in the other lateral direction, and controls a relative rotational angle to be created by the actuator in said one lateral direction to an angle equal to or smaller than the restricted relative rotational angle.
