PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To precisely cope with abnormality on the bypass circuit side, in a configuration for providing a bypass circuit in parallel with a light emitting element.SOLUTION: A vehicular lighting fixture is provided with one or a plurality of bypass parts connected in parallel with at least a part of light emitting elements among the plurality of light emitting elements connected in series, and forming or cutting off a bypass passage of a light emitting drive current for putting the light emitting element in an extinction state in response to a bypass control signal, and is also provided with abnormality detection part for generating a state signal of indicating whether the bypass part is a normal state or an abnormal state. When generating a signal of indicating that the bypass part is abnormal as this state signal, the light emitting drive current from a power source part for a light source is reduced or its supply is stopped.

    【課題】発光素子と並列にバイパス回路を設けた構成においてバイパス回路側の異常に的確に対応できるようにする。【解決手段】直列接続された複数の発光素子のうちの少なくとも一部の発光素子に並列に接続され、バイパス制御信号に応じて発光素子を消灯状態とするための発光駆動電流のバイパス経路の形成又は遮断を行う1又は複数のバイパス部を設けるとともに、バイパス部が正常状態か異常状態かを示す状態信号を生成する異常検出部とを設ける。この状態信号としてバイパス部が異常であることを示す信号が生成された場合、光源用電源部からの発光駆動電流が低減又は供給停止する。【選択図】図2
