I’m trying to curate a new passcode for my Apple ID

If you know the current password.

 Apple ID Password Change.      

 What to do after you change your Apple ID or password - Apple Support     I suggest doing this before you change your Apple ID or password.

If you forgot the Apple ID password, enter the Apple (iCloud) ID, and click Forgot Password. See if you can get a Rescue or Notification  email option if necessary. Link to contact Apple Support at the end of the 2nd article.
