prostart ct 3360 remote start problem

Hello everyone, this is my first post, I hope someone will know what I'm talking about here. 

 

I bought a Prostar CT-3360 from Canadian tire, it looked like a straight forward install but it hasn't gone well.  I have a 1999 Toyota Rav4 w/manual trans.  The remote starter is for a manual. 

 

From the prostart web site you can get vehicle wiring reference, it seemed correct except for the starter and ignition wires.  It said the starter wire should be blk/wht and have 12v+ only in the crank position, but the only wire in the ignition switch harness that tested that way was the all-black wire.  It also said the all-black should be 12v+ in both the on and crank position, which is it not, but the blk/wht is.  So basically I just switch those two wires.  Up until now nothing had worked but once I did that the unit works in every way it's supposed to except starting the vehicle.  I can lock/unlock the doors, go through the tach learning procedure and I can even put it in ready mode by starting the car, seting the parking brake, pressing any of the buttons on the remote until the park lights flash three times, pull the key and it keeps running.  I can press the button to shut the engine off and lock the doors.  I just can not get it to start up on it's own.  The clutch is bypassed, the hood pin is in place.  I don't even get the single flash of the parking lights I should get to tell me the start signal has been received.  By pressing the hood pin three times it will flash error codes via the parking lights, the code I get is 3x "hardware reset".  The manual provides no info on what that means and so far I haven't been able to get ahold of the company.  I'm starting to think the unit is defective but maybe soemone here has seen this before and has some insight? 

 

I would cut my losses at this point and toss the thing if it was just a matter of conveinence, but I have a 1200w inverter for the car and my plan was to be able to remote start it from the house or trailer when I need power, ironically the rest of the features that do work are not even of interest to me.

Oh ya, and when it fails to start, it does 3 long flashes.
