Accelerator position detection device

Abstract

An accelerator position detection device facilitates detection of a neutral position of a handlebar grip turnable in not only a positive direction but in a negative direction from the neutral position. In the accelerator position detection device provided with a detector that outputs voltage according to an angle of the handlebar grip and detects an angle for control for controlling a vehicle based upon the angle of the handlebar grip on the basis of the output of a first sensor and a second sensor, the first sensor is configured so that the first sensor outputs first voltage rising in volume from a position exceeding a first rise start angle located in a normal rotation direction by predetermined quantity from the neutral position in the normal rotation direction, and the second sensor is configured so that the second sensor outputs second voltage rising in volume from a position exceeding a second rise start angle located in a reverse rotation direction by predetermined quantity from the neutral position in the normal rotation direction.
