Abstract: A control device switches a shift range by driving a motor and moving a detent roller in a parking lock system including an electric actuator having the motor and a detent mechanism. A control unit of the control device includes a drive control part, a position determination part and a range determination part. The drive control part controls driving of the motor. When the detent roller is moved to a target valley portion corresponding to the target range, a position determination part determines that the detent roller has passed over a peak portion based on sensor information. The range determination part is configured to estimate that the detent roller has reached the range of the target range corresponding to the target range at a peak passing over determination timing when it is determined that the detent roller has passed over the peak portion.
