Parse error, locked out of admin

  • Hi,

    Relatively new to this but…..
    I tried to insert some code into the functions.php file in the editor part of WP and i got this error back on a blank screen:
    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in C:\xampp 1\htdocs\wp\wp-content\themes\theme\keid-hosting\functions.php on line 43

    I deleted the previously inserted code on line 43 but the error still remained.
    I am now completely locked out of https://localhost/wp/wp-admin/ (just shows the above error) and have tried replacing the functions.php on my c drive with the original functions.php file from my inital download but to no avail.
    How do i get back into admin to rectify this file on WP. Or is that my issue??
    Site not live yet! Can FTP functions.php file.

    Thanks in advance,

    Tom
