Abstract:
A lockup clutch control device for a vehicle, which, when used in a vehicle having an engine with an exhaust turbocharger and a fluid power transmission device as the power transmission device, prevents an occurrence of surging of the exhaust turbocharger when an lockup clutch of the fluid power transmission device is engaged.

This prevents an occurrence of surging caused by a reduction in the engine speed in the lockup. The lockup clutch control device (50) has timer means (51) for setting a time in which operation for reducing the engine speed target value is performed and also has second timer means (52) for setting a standby time for starting the lockup.
