CONTROL APPARATUS
20180283542 · 2018-10-04 ·

A control apparatus of an automatic transmission connected to an internal combustion engine of a vehicle includes a determination unit configured to determine an operation state of a hydraulic oil temperature sensor based on comparison between a threshold and a difference between a hydraulic oil temperature of the automatic transmission and a cooling water temperature of the internal combustion engine. When the operation state of the hydraulic oil temperature sensor is determined as normal by the comparison with the threshold, the determination unit further determines the operation state of the hydraulic oil temperature sensor based on an operation state of an oil pressure sensor determined using the hydraulic oil temperature, an oil pressure of hydraulic oil, and a rotation speed.
