The present invention provides a control booster which is capable of appropriately detecting a pedal-operated brake operation during an automatic brake operation. For moving a stop key from a position on a side of a rear-side abutment surface (where a reaction force of a switch acting on a switch operating rod and a spring force of a switch spring are balanced) toward an intermediate position, when the stop key is located on a side of the rear-side abutment surface, only a return force of the spring acts on a contact operating element of the switch. On the other hand, when the stop key moves toward the intermediate position, an abutment portion is separated from the contact operating element (that is, the switch operating rod moves in a direction for separation relative to the switch), so that no load is applied to the contact operating element. Breakage of the switch can be avoided when the brake pedal is operated during the automatic brake operation and operation of the brake pedal can be detected from the turning-off of the switch.
