A gas sensor control apparatus 5 is connected to a gas sensor (8) including cells (14, 24) each having a pair of electrodes provided on a solid electrolyte body (13, 23), and includes a sensor drive circuit (52). The gas sensor control apparatus (5) includes an instruction unit for outputting an instruction for setting the sensor drive circuit (52) to a deenergization state so as to stop the supply of electricity to the cells (14, 24) and an instruction for setting the sensor drive circuit (52) to an energization state so as to supply electricity to the cells (14, 24); a setting unit (55) for setting the sensor drive circuit (52) to the deenergization state or the energization state; and a wiring anomaly detection unit (58) for detecting a wiring anomaly of the sensor drive circuit (52) or the gas sensor (8). The gas sensor control apparatus (5) further includes an anomaly final determination unit, operable when a wiring anomaly is detected, for performing return-from-anomaly checking processing so as to cause the instruction unit to output the deenergization instruction and then output the energization instruction.
