Caution: you will lose all apps you added and data, since the hard reset sets it to factory defaults as though it was new.

Bought a used Onn Tablet. It won't let me sign in. I don't have PIN or the owner persons user name. It's locked anyway to open / unlock it.

Tidied up the question into the Queen's English :>D

You need to do a hard reset, also known as a factory reset. This scrubs the tablet clean and reloads the Android operating system with no password set.

Power Off
Press and hold the On button and the Volume Up Bottom for 12 seconds.
When you see the Recovery console, Choose the Factory Reset option.

Go to lost password in itunes have then send you a recovery email. If you just bought the tablet second hand then you may need a factory reset. If you do not have an apple i tunes account you will need to set one up as well.

Lost password

You'll need to do a factory reset:
1. With the device off, press and hold Volume Up and Power.
2. Release the Power button when you see the logo, but continue to hold Volume Up until the recovery screen appears.
3. Use the Volume buttons to navigate the menu and select wipe data / factory reset. Press Home to choose the selection.
4. Press Volume Up continue.

This will reset you device to factory settings, however anything on your SD card will still remain.
At this point you will need to start fresh as if you just bought the device -- register with your email address, etc.
