Need to see if there is power to the little wire on the starter when in the start position. If there is, the starter motor is bad, if not, then there is a supply problem to the starter.

Check it like I told you before. Use a test light on the little wire while someone holds the key to start.

It will not cause the stalling, that is a separate issue.
