In a control apparatus and a control method for a variable mechanism, when a predetermined condition is fulfilled, a movable member (3) is driven until an engagement portion (31) contacts one restriction member (22), and the absolute position of the movable member (3) when it is determined that displacement of the movable member (3) is stopped is learned, as a reference position. When supply of electric power is stopped, the absolute position of the movable member (3) is learned as an initial reference position. When electric power is supplied, the movable member (3) is driven from the initial reference position until the engagement portion (31) contacts the one restriction member (22), and a one-side displacement amount is calculated. If the one-side displacement amount is smaller than a one-side distance, it is determined that a foreign substance is caught in an area on a side of a site corresponding to the one restriction member (22) in a movable range. |
