Unable to enter passcode on iPhone

When I tap on a number to log in, the little circle does not light up. Sometimes if I tap in a quick manner it may light up one or more lights, then I have to repeatedly tap the DELETE button and then it erases more lights than what I want. So I can’t open it at all.
