It contributed, because it eventually led to the breaking off of the third estate, which led to the National Assembly (government of the people), which led to the execution of the king.. and so on.
In 1789, a meeting of the Estates General was called to work out financial issues. Disputes initiated over powers as well as the method of taxation. An impasse was reached and the Third Estate, who believed they were being treated unfairly and forced to carry the tax burden of the other two estates, formed the National Assembly, which would lead to the storming of the Bastille and the outbreak of the French Revolution.

What are the three key ideas in the meeting of the estates general?" what was the problem in the estates. what was the problem in the estates.
In 1789, the meeting of the French 'Estates-General' contributed to France's financial crisis, not to overlook its more general socio-political crisis, by adding additional demands and placing additional pressures on the French monarchy -- again, financially and otherwise. Once Louis XVI regretted his calling of the Estates-General meeting to such an extent that he attempted to disband it, however, it was too late: the French Revolution had begun.
By calling the Estates-General Louis the XIV would be at a disadvantage because it would give more power to the 1st Estate and the 2nd Estate. He would be losing power and he had no reason to call on the Estates-General. Louis the XVIII had to call on the Estates-General because the country was about to go bankrupt and he had no other choice but to call on the Estates-General and ask them for a loan.
He wanted to find a way to solve the financial crisis issue
In the build-up to the violent outbreak of the French Revolution, a meeting of the three-part Estates-General was in fact called by Louis XVI (rather than Louis XIV) in order to gain support for needed economic reforms. Meeting in May of 1789, the Estates-General soon took the initiative for reforms far beyond those envisioned by the French king.
The first meeting of the Estates General was May 5th, 1789.
