I've tried putting my reservation code into the "View your reservation" page on the JAL website, but it doesn't recognise it.
Also, I read somewhere that lounge access is "by reservation" in PE. I don't have any status with OW (mostly do SkyTeam), so I won't get access otherwise, do I have to do anything to make sure I have lounge access at BKK?
You need to get the JAL PNR not the one used by Amex (Sabre?).
Traveling in PY on BKK-HND will give you access to the Sakura Lounge at BKK. No status needed.
