Abstract
A control system for control of a vehicle prime mover includes an operation mode selecting device for selecting an operation mode, an accelerator operator, an operation mode detector for detecting the selected operation mode, an accelerator sensor for detecting an accelerator operating amount, an accelerator instruction value calculator for setting an accelerator instruction value to 0 unconditionally when the non-travel mode is selected and determining the accelerator instruction value based on a difference between the accelerator operating amount and a zero point value when the travel mode is selected, and an instruction value output calculator for determining and outputting an instruction value to the prime mover. The accelerator instruction value calculator sets the zero point value corresponding to the accelerator operating amount when the operation mode is changed.
