Abstract: A method of controlling a position of a seat using a single hall sensor. A pulse is output from the hall sensor in response to the rotation of the motor when displacing the seat forward or backward. The rotation of the motor is controlled such that the pulse output from the hall sensor is put in a sensor error state. It is determined whether or not the pulse output from the hall sensor is in the sensor error state. A sensor error is generated if the pulse output from the hall sensor is not in the sensor error state in the error state check step.
