So after serving the 2 year sentence, can they ask you again for the pass code?

You can't be convicted again for refusing to provide it, if that's what you mean

This isn't double jeopordy. If you rob a bank and serve the time for that crime, you don't get a free pass to rob more banks later because you've already served once. You get sentenced per crime.
