Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

As Ana said,
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
