Open-close body driving device
An open-close body driving device includes a motor configured to open and close an open-close body included in a vehicle and a controller controlling a movement speed of the open-close body driven by the motor. The controller is configured to move the open-close body at a normal speed based on a vehicle-side operating signal output by operation of an operating switch installed on the vehicle and at a speed lower than the normal speed based on a remote operating signal output by operation of a mobile device. The controller is configured so that in a shutting region having a predetermined dimension from a fully-closed position toward an open side, closing movement of the open-close body based on the remote operating signal is slower than closing movement of the open-close body based on the vehicle-side operating signal.
