What year model..?? Were the parts actually "New" or were they removed from another vehicle..??

It may have to be "coded-in" using Ford IDS. Just replacing things with new bits may not help, they may then need be coded-in to talk each other. Someone who knows for sure should be along shortly.

Keys are coded to the pump, or injectors depending if it's a TDDi, or a TDCi, so they'll need to be coded in.
1994 Mk4 SWB 115 Minibus 70ps Di (R.I.P.)
1997 Mk5 SWB 115 Minibus 70ps Di (Gone, but not forgotten!)
2004 Mk6 SWB T280 Medium Roof 85PS 2.0 TDDi - Vantunered (Also gone)
2008 Mk7 SWB T280 Medium Roof 85PS 2.2 TDCi - Also Vantunered
