Look at the picture.

There is a common plate with a cutout to separate the coil when the key is off. When the key is turned clockwise the plate connects with battery feed. When the key is turned counter clockwise the only difference is there is no power feed.

The only reason for the separate coil feed is anti-theft. You can't back feed power to the coil without a short circuit.
