Abstract
A control apparatus includes a select lever, an inhibitor switch, a manual valve, a first SOL, a second SOL, and a controller. The controller controls the first SOL and the second SOL such that a hydraulic pressure is supplied to a first friction element and a second friction element when the inhibitor switch detects a D range. The controller determines that an operation position is at an intermediate position when operations of the first friction element and the second friction element are not detected. The controller determines that the first SOL has a failure when the operation of the first friction element is not detected.
