Family Sharing: Changing Screen Time Passcode Doesn't Work

Hi there. I have my son's iPhone on Family Sharing and I turned on screen time and added some restrictions. My son has figured out the passcode and now when I change it, it does nothing. He can continue using the old one he figured out. Just to be clear I have gone into Settings, Screen Time, Chosen his name, Clicked on Change Screen Time Passcode on my phone and nothing happens. Please help.

Try turning off Screen Time and then re-enable it. It should ask you to create a passcode when you turn it back on.
