Hello
1) The first thing to check is the outlet. The easy way to check the outlet is by taking a lead cord and plugging into a different outlet. If it tripped the breaker you know it’s the refrigerator has a dead short.
2) If that happens go to page #34 in the manual link below to check your compressor for a dead short to ground.
3) Remove the relay illustrated on page #34 . It plugs into the compressor, just pull towards you and it will come off. Then test the Common, Run & Start terminals on page #32 with an OHM meter. Take each terminal to the shell of the compressor. If you have continuity you have a defective compressor. Matt Ace technician
