Phones don't have PIN codes they have security codes. PIN codes are
for SIM security. The default security code is 12345 (as detailed in
either the hard copy of the manual or on the PDF which you can
download from nokiausa.com.) As a last resort it's always good to
read the manual!

if the code isn't 12345 it can also be 0000
if those code's don't work, it means they have been changed and then you
will have to reboot the mobile completely, other software, etc.
