1. A steering control device comprising a first reaction force control circuit and a second reaction force control circuit, each of the first reaction force control circuit and the second reaction force control circuit being configured to:
control a reaction force motor configured to generate steering reaction force that is given to a steering wheel isolated from dynamic power transmission for a turning wheel of a vehicle;
execute, at a time of starting, a preparation process including a process that requires the steering wheel to automatically rotate through the reaction force motor; and
store, at a time of completion of the execution of the preparation process, information indicating whether the preparation process has been normally completed, wherein
in a case where the first reaction force control circuit has been reset, when the information indicates that the preparation process has been normally completed, the first reaction force control circuit that has been reset is configured to not execute the preparation process at a time of restarting after completion of the reset.
