Supply and interruption of power source to the first angle sensor 2 and the second angle sensor 4 are alternately performed, by comparing the signal Vo1 or Vo2 which is outputted from the first angle sensor 2 or the second angle sensor 4 and amplified by the first signal amplifier 3 or the second signal amplifier 5 with the signal Vo1 or the signal Vo2 in a state where the abnormality such as the short-circuit does not occur between the wires, so that the determination is made as to whether or not the abnormality such as the short-circuit is present between the wires. The calculating section 6 can quickly detect an abnormality such as the short-circuit simply by supplying the power source to the first angle sensor 2 or the second angle sensor 4. In consequence, the abnormality of the rotational angle detecting device 1 can be detected before the steering wheel connected to the vehicular steering shaft is operated.
