I now have park lights. When I bought my transit, it didnt have an park lights or dash lights when the stalk is in the park light section, but flicking it up to the headlight low beam position, all lights and dash lights worked. So off with the stalk unit and checked the plug connection to stalk. A couple of prongs in the plug had split apart and not connecting properly. Pushed them together with a pin, sprayed some contact cleaner in there and done, dash lights and park lights working. Another little thing done on the transit.

Stabbed holes in the passenger footstep with the key. I don't think there was much chance of causing any damage to the key.
