On your parking lights, they only work in the first position and is a single pink wire from the headlight switch with a splice and then a separate wire going to the junction block on each fender. The key illumination light should also only work at the same time. Are they both out or do you have power at the terminal on fender? Head and tail lights work properly?

The dash lights not working is a common problem with cars that sit. They get power from a terminal on headlight switch and through a resistor which is activated by turning the knob. The workings of that rheostat are very prone to corroding and once that happens, dash lights no longer function until things are cleaned--. Almost requires taking the switch out to do it thoroughly and properly.
