Abstract: In a transmission control device, a controller determines failure of a rotation sensor. A hydraulic control circuit and the controller variably control a speed ratio of a variator. The hydraulic control circuit and the controller variably control a gear position of a sub-transmission mechanism, and in a case where the failure is determined, fix the gear position of the sub-transmission mechanism to first speed. The hydraulic control circuit and the controller fix the gear position of the sub-transmission mechanism to the first speed during a vehicle stop in a case where the gear position of the sub-transmission mechanism upon a determination of the failure is second speed.

Abstract: Selection solenoid valve (75) controls engagement/disengagement of travel clutch (31, 32) in synchronization with a selecting operation of selector lever (90) that selects a range position of belt-type continuously variable transmission (CVT). Selection solenoid valve abnormality diagnosing unit (Sa) is configured to, when performing a selecting operation from no-drive range to drive range, if a time required for travel clutch (31, 32) to be judged to be engaged from a start of selection of the drive range is less than a predetermined time, judge selection solenoid valve (75) to be a maximum hydraulic pressure side abnormality. When performing the selecting operation of drive range?no-drive range?drive range, if a selecting operation speed condition indicating that a no-drive range selection time is shorter than a setting time (Tth) is satisfied, execution of abnormality diagnosis of selection solenoid valve (75) is not permitted. With this configuration, misjudgment is prevented.

CVT control unit (8) has abnormality control unit (81). The abnormality control unit (81) is configured to, when decrease in secondary pressure (Psec) is detected during travel, execute, during travel, abnormality control that increases solenoid pressure (Psol), supplied to line pressure spool valve (42) from line pressure solenoid (41), more than solenoid pressure (Psol) of a time when the decrease in secondary pressure (Psec) is detected. With this, even when the decrease in the pressure is detected during travel, the decrease in the pressure is suppressed during travel while reducing influence on vehicle travel.

Abstract: A continuously variable transmission is mounted in a vehicle, and includes a primary pulley, a secondary pulley, and a belt, wherein the belt is wound around the primary pulley and the secondary pulley. A control device performs a low speed position return control by a feedback control employing a control input integral component. The low speed position return control is to control a transmission ratio to a final target transmission ratio for lower speed position while the vehicle is decelerating. The control device performs a limiting control in response to a condition that the transmission ratio has reached the final target transmission ratio during the low speed position return control. The limiting control is to limit the control input integral component based on thrust balance between the primary pulley and the secondary pulley so as to maintain the transmission ratio at the final target transmission ratio.

Abstract: In an automatic transmission control device of the invention configured to start an increase in engagement pressure of a start-up engagement element, when a determination threshold value for determining that a turbine rotational speed has reduced is reached or exceeded, the determination threshold value when a selection operation from a non-traveling range to a traveling range is made before a prescribed period of time from starting of an engine has elapsed, is increased and set greater than the determination threshold value when the selection operation is made after the prescribed period of time has elapsed. Accordingly, a reduction in the turbine rotational speed can be accurately determined, and thus it is possible to suppress torque fluctuations, occurring owing to engagement of a second brake, which is the start-up engagement element.

Abstract: In a vehicle equipped with a torque converter 4 having a lock-up clutch (3), learning control for obtaining a learning value (L_n) on the basis of meet-point information, with which the lock-up clutch (3) initiates torque transmission, is carried out. When the lock-up clutch (3) experiences a transition to an engaged state during travel, a meet-point learning control unit (12c) calculates an LU transmission torque estimate on the basis of the difference between the engine torque (engine torque signal value Te) and the torque converter transmission torque (?·Ne2). Excess clutch capacity is detected when the LU transmission torque estimate is greater than an excess capacity determination transmission torque threshold within a prescribed amount of time after an initial pressure (P_n) based on the learning value (L_n) is instructed. When excess clutch capacity is detected, a learning value correction that reduces the learning value (L_n) is carried out.

The controller sets a target speed ratio of the sub-transmission mechanism on the basis of the target through speed ratio and an actual speed ratio of the variator in carrying out the coordinated shift.
