Restrictions Passcode

So my old IPhone 6 Plus has a restrictions passcode on it and we are trying to figure out a way to override it because I cannot remember what I set it as! Any suggestions on how to override it?!?

There is no way to override it. The only thing you can do if you have forgotten the passcode is to put the device into Recovery Mode and Restore to Factory. You will have to set the device up as new, not using a backup, since the backup contains the passcode and would just put it right back on the phone. Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support
