A controller includes: an automatic shifting control section that carries out automatic shifting control in which a shifting actuator is driven in response to a predetermined automatic shifting command; and an interference prevention control section that controls the automatic shifting control section so as to prohibit simultaneous occurrence of a manual shifting process induced by operation of a shifting operation member and an automatic shifting process induced by the shifting actuator.

A control apparatus of a transmission includes a hydraulic pressure circuit, an abnormality detector, and a controller. The transmission performs shifting operation of the transmission. The controller controls the shifting operation by controlling, as a first control operation, a control pressure adjusting value to allow a line pressure and a control pressure to have a correlation with each other and by using, as a value of the line pressure, a value calculated on a basis of a detected value of the control pressure. The controller controls the shifting operation by controlling, as a second control operation, the control pressure adjusting valve to allow the line pressure and the control pressure to have a correlation with each other and by using, as a value of the control pressure, a value calculated on a basis of a detected value of the line pressure.

A method for operating a vehicle that includes an electrical power output is described. In one example, the method includes preventing shifting of transmission gears in response to an external electric power consumer being coupled to an electrical power output receptacle of the vehicle. The method may reduce a possibility of interrupting electrical power that may be supplied to the external electric power consumer.

An automatic transmission is arranged in a hybrid driveline employing an EV mode and an HEV mode, and establishes transmission ratio positions by engaging or disengaging frictional elements. A system or method includes: determining, based on a vehicle deceleration and a relationship between a requested transmission ratio position and an actual transmission ratio, whether or not interlocking is occurring, when the automatic transmission is in a state out of transmission shifting, wherein the interlocking is due to erroneous engagement of one of the frictional elements; and inhibiting the determination about interlocking, during a period from start of slip of a first frictional element of the automatic transmission to confirmation of convergence of slip of the first frictional element, in a situation that the first frictional element is slip-engaged for starting the engine in response to a request for mode transition from the EV mode to the HEV mode.

A vehicle transmission includes a shift lever including a receiving unit formed therein, a bullet in which at least a portion thereof is inserted and disposed within the receiving unit of the shift lever, and a detent groove unit which allows the bullet to advance or retreat depending on a profile of a contact surface in contact with the bullet as the shift lever rotates. The bullet includes a guide aperture formed longitudinally along an advancement-retreat direction of the bullet, and a fixing pin having at least one end thereof fixed to the receiving unit is inserted into the guide aperture.
