Unit tripping breaker

Model Number: et20nk Brand: Whirlpool Age: More than 10 years

Just moved the unit to a new house. It tripped a breaker during the night. When I re-plug it back in it instantly trips the breaker. I rotated the 10hr defrost timer and got it going only to have the same problem occur the next night. What is shunting/shorting out? Where can I test for correct voltages?
Thanks.
