Have a look at this related article, to reset the passcode. But this will erase your iPhone, there is no way around that:

If you forgot your iPhone passcode, use your Mac or PC to reset it - Apple Support

If you see a iPhone, iPad, or Apple Vision Pro unavailable message or Security Lockout screen - Apple Support

In some cases you can use the old passcode for a short period of time:

Temporarily use your old passcode when you forget your new passcode on iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
