Abstract:
By providing an auxiliary check valve in parallel with a check valve installed in an electric oil pump, it is possible to measure an oil temperature even when the check valve is stuck. A flow resistance of an oil passage of the auxiliary check valve is set so as to be larger than that of the check valve, and a minimum valve open pressure difference of the auxiliary check valve is set so as to be smaller than that of the check valve. Thus, it is possible to further accurately measure an oil temperature and determine a fault. By using a rotation speed of the electric oil pump and an oil temperature in determining whether there is a fault in the electric oil pump or in the oil passage, it is possible to reduce the influence of variations, or the like, in measurement of a temperature sensor.
