There is disclosed a control system for controlling braking of wheels in a towed vehicle comprising: an electric drum brake associated with at least one wheel of the towed vehicle for applying a braking force to the towed vehicle, the electric drum brake having at least one electro magnet for controlling application of the braking force; and a computer controller electrically coupled to each electric drum brake; wherein, the at least one electro-magnet generates an electric field through which a geometric or magnetic variation present in the electric drum brake passes through upon rotation of the wheel, the computer controller being configured to detect a response signal generated by the passing of the geometric or magnetic variation through the electric field, the response signal being indicative of the state of motion of the wheel.
