1. An opening-closing member control device, comprising:
a motor that is configured to open and close an opening-closing member of a vehicle; and
a control unit configured to (i) stop the motor from continuing to close the opening-closing member immediately upon the control unit determining that a foreign object has been entrapped by the opening-closing member and (ii) reverse the motor after a delay time elapses after stopping the motor;
wherein:
the control unit is configured such that, if the control unit determines that the foreign object has been entrapped during operation of the opening-closing member by a remote operation switch that is separated from the vehicle, the control unit sets the delay time at a first delay time;
the control unit is configured such that, if the control unit determines that the foreign object has been entrapped during operation of the opening-closing member by a vehicle operation switch that is in the vehicle, the control unit sets the delay time at a second delay time; and
the first delay time is shorter than the second delay time.
