Fail-safe gear-shifting control system for an automatic transmission
A-gear-shifting control system is described for an automatic transmission having a torque converter connected to an engine output shaft, a transmission gear mechanism connected to the output shaft of the torque converter, a fluid pressure type actuator means for actuating the transmission gear mechanism to shift, and an electromagnetic means for controlling the supply of pressurized fluid to the fluid pressure type actuator means. The gear-shifting control system comprises: A rotational speed detecting means for detecting the rotational speed of the output shaft or the input shaft of the torque converter; an engine load detecting means for detecting engine load; a vehicle speed detecting means for detecting the vehicle speed; and a main gear-shifting characteristic memory in which main gear-shifting characteristics are stored.
