Control device for vehicle

摘要

An ECU determines whether or not there is an abnormality (shift pattern abnormality) in a combination of shift signals provided from a shift position sensor. After occurrence of the shift pattern abnormality is determined, ECU determines whether or not a first condition that a shift pattern has changed into a normal pattern of a drive range, a second condition that a brake is ON and a vehicle is in a stop state is satisfied, and a third condition that an accelerator is OFF are satisfied. When occurrence of the shift pattern abnormality is determined, ECU stops generation of driving force of the vehicle and prohibits switching to the drive range. When ECU determines that the above-mentioned first to third conditions are satisfied after occurrence of the shift pattern abnormality is determined, ECU switches the shift range to the drive range indicated by the shift pattern.

主权项

1. A control device for a vehicle in which a shift range is switched in accordance with a shift signal outputted from a sensor detecting shift operation by a driver, said shift range including a D range for causing said vehicle to run in a forward direction,
said control device comprising: an abnormality determination unit that determines whether or not said shift signal is abnormal; and a running control unit that, when it is determined that said shift signal is abnormal, determines whether or not a first condition that said shift signal has changed into a state in which said shift signal normally indicates said D range after it is determined that said shift signal is abnormal, a second condition that a driver is pressing a brake pedal and said vehicle is in a stop state, and a third condition that an amount of operation of an accelerator pedal is equal to or smaller than a threshold value are all satisfied, and when said first to third conditions are all satisfied, permits startup of said vehicle in said D range indicated by said shift signal even in a state where a D-ON failure is occurring, and when at least any one of said first to third conditions is not satisfied, does not permit startup of said vehicle in said D range indicated by said shift signal, wherein said D-ON failure is a failure in which said shift signal can change into the state in which said shift signal normally indicates said D range but cannot change into a state in which said shift signal normally indicates a shift range other than said D range.
