Abstract
A fluid circuit module controls a fluid to be supplied to a movable element in an automatic transmission. The fluid circuit module is provided with a first body in which a first flow passage is formed, a second body in which a second flow passage is formed. A separation plate is set between the first body and the second body and has a deformation portion that is deformed and strained in accordance with the difference between pressures in the first flow passage and the second flow passage. A strain sensor is attached to the deformation portion for detecting a strain of the deformation portion. A control means controls a supply fluid to be supplied to the movable element on the basis of a detection result of the strain sensor.
