1. A method of correcting shift position sensors of a vehicle, the sensors comprising an inhibitor switch and two or more analog sensors that detect angle displacement between a shift lever and a lever housing as a voltage change, comprising the steps of:

  • determining a current condition of a transmission as a range P, when the inhibitor switch outputs signals corresponding to the range P; and

    inputting signals from the inhibitor switch and from the analog sensors, and determining the current condition of the transmission as a shift range that is indicated by a majority of the signals, when the inhibitor switch outputs signals corresponding to a range other than the range P.
