Stalling at stop - radio/electrical contributing cause? 900 1993

My recently acquired 1993 945T is starting and running well, but twice now it has dropped RPM and quietly (no big cough or shudder) stalled at stop lights. I had the radio on once, and was opening the sunroof the second time (maybe unrelated?). To restart, engine had to crank quite a bit (e.g. took several tries). I shut all electronics off during restart and kept them off. Car started and drove fine after that both times. I dont have any hesitation during normal driving, it only happens at low idle. Any thoughts welcome! Thanks.

Try chacking your fuse panel for connectivity of all fuses and make sure none are burnt out and clean ALL corosion w/ a small wire (steel or brass) brush. I had a problem once with my 240 that the overall problem ended up being that a fuse wouhld loose connection every now and then... I tightened it up and haven't had a problem since. Take care
