New Bluetooth keyboards come with a PIN that you should input when pairing with Bluetooth. If you are like me, you are surprised to realize that nothing indicates your new keyboard PIN. So, what is the PIN for Bluetooth Keyboard?

The most common Bluetooth Keyboard PIN is four zeros, ‘0000’. You can try ‘1111’ or ‘1234’ if your new Bluetooth keyboard doesn’t accept four zeros as the PIN code. The PIN varies from one manufacturer to the next and depends on the Bluetooth keyboard model. 

Overall, you can try four zeros in your first attempt to pair a new Bluetooth keyboard to a computer or tablet. Alternatively, you can Google the manufacturer’s Bluetooth keyboard PIN code or check their website. 

I will tell you a procedure to check the PIN code in your settings if you have forgotten the PIN or donโ€™t know the PIN code your manufacturer used.
