Abstract
A vehicular power transmission includes an oil pump that produces an oil pressure for a line pressure to control the applications of frictional engagement elements and for a lubrication pressure to lubricate individual mechanical portions of the transmission. A motor is provided for driving the oil pump. A control unit controls the motor. An electric oil pump control system includes an accelerator sensor for inputting acceleration data according to the operation of the accelerator pedal of a vehicle to the control unit. The control unit controls the revolutions per minute of the motor such that the amount of oil discharged by the oil pump is sufficient for outputting the line pressure matching the acceleration data and the lubrication pressure.
