A gas sensor control apparatus (1) includes a gas sensor (8) having an oxygen pump cell (14); a sensor drive circuit (52) which energizes the gas sensor; terminal voltage output means (54) which detects and outputs a terminal voltage of the oxygen pump cell; anomaly detection means (58) which compares the terminal voltage and a first threshold value, and when the terminal voltage exceeds the first threshold value, outputs a short circuit anomaly signal informing of a short circuit; a controller (55) which compares the terminal voltage and a second threshold value less than the first threshold value, and when the terminal voltage exceeds the second threshold value, generates a cell voltage anomaly signal informing of an application of an overvoltage to the oxygen pump cell; and command means (9) which, when receiving the short circuit anomaly signal or cell voltage anomaly signal, outputs a de-energization command.
