The disclosure relates to a leak detection system for a pneumatic braking system of a vehicle. The pneumatic braking system has a control unit, a pneumatic circuit, and an air tank configured to supply pneumatic pressure to the pneumatic circuit. The pneumatic circuit has a plurality of valves configured to be individually controlled by the control unit. The link detection system includes program code configured, when executed by a processor, to individually control the valves of the pneumatic circuit so as to isolate a sub-circuit of the pneumatic circuit. The leak detection module is configured to monitor a pressure in the pneumatic circuit for leaks, wherein the leak detection module detects a leak in the sub-circuit if the pressure decreases while the sub-circuit is isolated.
