This doesn't sound too hopeful...maybe its time to consider changing it out.
How old is old???...Make & model might also help!
 
Its an old Electrolux TC1160, realise it is perhaps past it, wonder if a simple part from on line parts firm might do the trick, its been in the shed for years and never been a problem before.
Thanks
 
What type of circuit breaker trips, RCD or MCB

MCB tripping means you have a short circuit somewhere.
RCD tripping means you have an earth fault

Either could be caused by damaged wiring, damp or faulty plug, faulty compressor or cooling motor (if fitted)
