An electronic transmission control system having a fail-safe system for an automotive vehicle with a continuously variable automatic transmission whose speed-change ratio (ip) is changeable continuously depending on vehicle speed (VSP) and engine load (TVO), comprises a hydraulic modulator (12,13,14,15,16,21,25,26) producing at least a regulated line pressure (PL) necessary to adjust the speed-change ratio (ip) hydraulically, a desired speed-change ratio arithmetic processing section for calculating a desired speed-change ratio (Npri/Nsec) based on the vehicle speed and the engine load, and a desired line pressure arithmetic processing section for retrieving a desired line pressure (PLO) based on the speed-change ratio (Npri/Nsec) and the engine load (TVO) from a predetermined characteristic map (Fig.5). Also provided is a fail-safe section (30,40,steps 44 or 54) comprising a comparing portion for comparing the desired line pressure (PLO) to a predetermined line pressure threshold (DS1,DS2) above which the desired line pressure (PLO) is within an unreasonably high line pressure zone, a decision portion for deciding whether the desired line pressure (PLO) is above the predetermined line pressure threshold (DS1,DS2), and a speed-change ratio retaining portion for retaining the speed-change ratio (ip) unchanged, when the desired line pressure (PLO) exceeds the predetermined line pressure threshold (DS1,DS2). <IMAGE> |
