An in-vehicle operating device is provided. The in-vehicle operating device includes a panel constituting a vehicle interior component and having an opening, an operation module provided to be movable in a backward-forward direction through the opening between a first position and a second position spaced apart from each other, with a button operated by a user being disposed on a front end thereof, an actuator including a plurality of shape-memory members contracting by applying current when heated and restored to an original state thereof when cooled, the plurality of shape-memory members including at least one first shape-memory member configured to move the operation module to the first position using a force generated during contraction and at least one second shape-memory member configured to move the operation module to the second position using a force generated during contraction, and a controller configured to supply current to the actuator while maintaining a voltage provided from a vehicle battery within a preset voltage range, and control an amount of current for each of the plurality of shape-memory members included in the actuator according to a condition for operating each of the plurality of shape-memory members.

The invention has for object an electrical assembly comprising: a first electrical connection bar, a second electrical connection bar, and an electronic card,
the first and the second electrical connection bar being in electrical contact with one another, on a connection zone, said card being at a distance from said connection zone. The assembly further comprises an electrical conduction part that creates an electrical connection between said connection zone and the electronic card.

In a deflector device, a magnet is rotated when a deflector body is rotated, and a magnetic sensor also detects a rotational position of the magnet. Moreover, an interior of a housing body is partitioned by a motor base into a vehicle width direction outside of the interior and a vehicle width direction inside of the interior, with the magnet housed on the vehicle width direction outside of the interior of the housing body. The magnetic sensor is housed on the vehicle width direction inside of the interior of the housing body. This accordingly enables foreign matter ingression from the vehicle width direction outside of the interior of the housing body into the vehicle width direction inside thereof to be suppressed by the motor base, enabling foreign matter to be suppressed from reaching the magnetic sensor.
