My interpretation is the wires would normally go through an on/off switch, if not available join together.
Probably provides a low level signal to tell the controller/motor to work?

The ignition wire is normal on cheap controllers, especially the ones without a control panel. The red wire is connected directly to the red battery wire inside the controller, so it's battery voltage coming out, and the blue one provides the power for the controller's pcb. If you don't connect them, the controller will have no power.
