iPhone 6S disabled

I factory reset my iPhone 6S to sell it, but apparently the passcode didn't get erase. The phone will not accept the passcode saying its not right, thus disabling the phone. How do I fix the problem, so I can sell it. I don't understand why factory resetting the phone and erasing all its content didn't take away the passcode. Please help.....I have tried multiple you tube videos, none of them work on this problem

Did you do this? -->


What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch [or if you received one that had not been erased] - "Use these steps to remove your personal information from a device, even if you don't have it anymore." - https://support.apple.com/HT201351


What exactly is the error message? "Passcode" is normally used when a device has been disabled, but erasing the device should erase that.


Activation lock involves knowing both an Apple ID and a password, but you make no mention of this error message or of an Apple ID.
