An electronic control device includes a substrate, a plurality of component-mounted wires disposed on the substrate, a plurality of electronic components mounted on the respective component-mounted wires, a common wire coupled with each of the electronic components, an interrupt wire coupled between one of the component-mounted wires and the common wire, and a heat release portion. The interrupt wire melts in accordance with heat generated by an overcurrent. The heat release portion is attached to the common wire and is disposed at a position where a wiring distance from the interrupt wire is shorter than a wiring distance between the interrupt wire and any of the electronic components except for one of the electronic components mounted on the one of the component-mounted wires.
