Hi, thanks for posting.

How many times have you tried?

Here is the chart of how long to how many attempts:


  • 5 wrong passcodes - 1 minute
  • 6 wrong passcodes - 5 minutes
  • 7 wrong passcodes - 15 minutes
  • Any subsequent wrong passcode after 7: Adds 1 Hour to your previous time. (Caps at 9 hours)


Try waiting the correct amount of time and let me know how it goes.
