Two Thoughts:

Try putting two zeros in front of the passcode. No success? Reset your passcode. You'd reset your device to do so.

  1. Go here: Reset the passcode - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: Set a passcode on iPhone
  3. As it Reads: "If you can’t remember your passcode, you can erase your iPhone with a computer or with recovery mode, then set a new passcode."
