Abstract
A control system for a transmission (T/M) including a select lever (r) operable to shift from a neutral position (N) to a running position (D, R) and vice versa, and a control part (c) to control a changing gear operation of the transmission in accordance with the position of the select lever. The control part includes a changing gear limitation system (), and when the select lever is shifted from the neutral position to the running position, the changing gear limitation system permits a gear-in operation of the transmission if a stationary time (T) during when the select lever is in the neutral position is equal to or less than a predetermined time, and holds the transmission in the neutral state if the stationary time exceeds the predetermined time. By this constitution, the direction of the driving force can be quickly reversed.
