I used 1234 as recommended by another user. I didn’t recall ever setting a PIN for restrictions and now it seems it was set during an up date. I would suggest before resetting phone try the default 1234. Work for me

The only solution I crossed was to go to Find My/ Find My iPhone/iPad on another device and click erase. Make sure to back up your device first, or all information will be lost. If you don’t have another device, click on your device on Find My and click erase. Due to the fact that I never did this, I cannot assure you that it will work. I was able to restore my iPad once I erased it. I hope this is helpful!
