Maybe your iMac is too old for the diagnostics.

How did you install on your new SSD?

If you don't give any information how can anyone help you ?

How did you upgrade and install the OS ?

From where did you download the OS ?

How exactly did you install it ?

The link tells you that your Mac is too old to run that version of diagnostics.

Boot in recovery mode and reinstall the OS without formatting the SSD.
