I do not do I-stuff but one of two things happens
1: you have a temporary lockout
2: you have to use the full password you used before you set up the PIN.
3: On chromebooks you can do a "Factory Reset" (Power wash) restores it to "Brand new" which means you start over. you also lose anything stored on the internal memory When I Say Brand New I mean the day you first opened the box.
