Abstract

An automatic transmission shift control system calibrates a locking speed, which is regulated by a regulating valve and at which locking of a specific frictional element is performed so as to shift an transmission gear mechanism to a specific gear, in accordance with a deviation of an input speed of rotation to the transmission from a specified input speed of rotation while shifting the transmission to the specific gear. The system further varies the calibration according to a transitional period of time which is defined from a completion of shifting to a preceding gear from which the transmission is shifted directly to the specific gear to a commencement of shifting to the specific gear subsequently to the shifting to the preceding gear.
