Yes, a faulty torque converter solenoid can contribute to stalling in a vehicle. The solenoid controls the engagement and disengagement of the torque converter, which helps manage engine power and smooth transitions between gears. If it malfunctions, it can lead to improper fluid flow, causing the engine to stall, especially during low-speed maneuvers or when coming to a stop. However, stalling can also be caused by other issues, so a thorough diagnosis is recommended.

Why would your car stop when you shift into Drive?
One possibility is a defective lock-up torque converter solenoid. If it runs and idles fine in then this would be what I would check first. Disconnect it and if it then stops stalling in drive, you have found the culprit.

Have the Overdrive and the Lock-Up Torque Converter checked. I would suspect the Lock-Up Torque Converter Solenoid is going bad.
Would a broken Torque Converter Solenoid in a 1995 Nissan Maxima cause it to die when put into gear?
There is no such device as a torque convertor solenoid. There is a transmission control module. There can be any of 100 reasons why the car may stall when put into gear but I do not think it is a transmission problem. It sounds like an engine problem. There are torque converter control solenoids, and if stuck in the wrong position they can keep the lock up clutch engaged which can cause the engine to die when at a stop.
