Could be a defective ignition switch. I have had 2 fail in my '97 900S. The symptoms were intermittent complete shutdown. All the warning lights and chimes would activate just before the engine cut out. On occasion, it would stumble and all the warning lights would light up but it would continue to run. Often in those situations the tranmission went into limp home mode and I would have to turn the car off and restart to get everything to work properly. Sometimes, I also had a starting problem and the engine would crank and crank without starting and then it would suddenly work fine.
Each time after the ignition switch was replaced, the problems all disappeared. The dealer never found any codes that revealed the problem. Changing the ignition switch doesn't cost a lot - even at the dealer - so it is worth considering.
