Abstract
In a hydraulic control system for an automatic transmission, a valve element of an accumulator closes communication between a pressure switch circuit and a detection circuit when a hydraulic pressure applied to the detection circuit is lower than a predetermined hydraulic pressure, and opens communication between the pressure switch circuit and the detection circuit when the applied pressure is higher than or equal to the predetermined hydraulic pressure. A switching element opens communication between one end of the pressure switch circuit and an exhaust circuit when the other end of the pressure switch circuit does not communicate with the detection circuit, and closes communication between the one end and the exhaust circuit when the other end communicates with the detection circuit.
