It's not quite that "fancy." 
When the cable is broken or detached the IMRC winds it back in. The IMRC motor is moderately pulling on the cable the entire time the key is in the on position. This is part of the reason it gets so hot.
As for triggering the PCM signal. When the reel winds in the cable a set amount to reach the cable stop the cam on the reel trips a switch inside the IMRC. This is what tells the PCM the IMRC is open. The IMRC motor still pulls full strength to try and hold the IMRC open.

It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.
