A motor vehicle steering system includes a motor driving circuit connected
between a power supply and a ground for driving a multi-phase motor, PWM
signal generating unit for generating an each-phase PWM signal for
controlling a current flowing through each of phases of the multi-phase
motor and feeding the each-phase PWM signal to the motor driving circuit,
a single current sensor connected between the motor driving circuit and
the power supply or the ground, and each-phase current value computing
unit for finding an each-phase current value flowing through each of the
phases of the multi-phase motor on the basis of an output of the current
sensor. The PWM signal generating unit shifts the fall or rise timing of
a carrier wave of the each-phase PWM signal by a predetermined phase
shift amount.
