Intermediate position feedback control is executed when valve timing of an intake valve is at an intermediate lock position, an intermediate lock is needed, and an engine revolution speed is greater than a first engine revolution speed R1. Forced lock control is executed when the valve timing of the intake valve is at the intermediate lock position, the intermediate lock is needed, the engine revolution speed is less than the first engine revolution speed R1, and the intermediate position feedback control is not being executed. As a result, even when the engine revolution speed increases in the presence of a demand that the valve timing needs to be in the intermediate lock position, it is possible to maintain the valve timing at the intermediate lock position. |
