A hydraulic control device that includes a normally closed first solenoid valve, a first check valve, a failsafe valve, and a second check valve, wherein the first movable member of the first check valve is biased to cut off the communication between the first input port and the first drain port in case of the failure in which no current is applied to the first solenoid valve.

A control apparatus for a vehicular continuously variable transmission is provided. The control apparatus includes a pair of pulley pressure adjusting valves, a pair of electromagnetic valves, a source pressure adjusting valve and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to control the source pressure adjusting valve in such a manner as to lower the source pressure at a time of a fail mode below the source pressure at a time of a non-fail mode, at the time of the fail mode, and control command signals to the pair of the electromagnetic valves such that the command signals temporarily decrease below command signals at the time of the non-fail mode, before cancelling the lowering of the source pressure in making a changeover from the fail mode to the non-fail mode.

A control device provided in a gear shifting device includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit determines whether an abnormality of the gear shifting device has occurred, performs a fail-safe process of switching the frictional engagement element corresponding to an abnormality to a disengaged state and fixing the gear shift ratio of the gear shifting device when it is determined that an abnormality has occurred, determines whether the abnormality has been relieved based on a behavior of an input signal at the time of operating a drive device of the frictional engagement element corresponding to an abnormality on condition that the frictional engagement element is maintained in the disengaged state after it is determined that the abnormality has occurred, and releases the fail-safe process when it is determined that the abnormality has been relieved.
