Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I see that Location Services under privacy has been on for three months now, and you're not able to turn if off because the button is frozen. I understand that it's important to turn off a service on your iPhone if you no longer need it enabled. Let's work together and find the best resolution to this issue.
Does the option to disable location services appear to be greyed out? If so, it may be possible that you have enabled Restrictions and this is affecting your ability to change this setting in Settings > Privacy > Location Services. You can check to see if you have Restrictions enabled by navigating to Settings > General > Restrictions. Take a look at this website for more information:Use Restrictions on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
If you do not have Restrictions enabled, please use About privacy and Location Services in iOS 8 and later to try and reset Location Services, and then try to turn it off, specifically, these sections:
Reset or disable Location Services
Location warnings are the requests that apps (such as Camera, Compass, and Maps as well as location-based third-party apps) make to use Location Services with those apps. An app will ask for permission the first time it needs to access Location Services data. Tapping Allow will give that app permission to use Location Services as needed. Tapping Don't Allow will prevent an app from accessing Location Services data. Apps won't use your location until they have asked for your permission and you grant permission.
If you would like to reset all of your location settings to the factory default, go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Location & Privacy. When your location and privacy settings are reset, apps will stop using your location until you grant them permission.
Turn Location Services on or off
You can turn Location Services on or off at Settings > Privacy > Location Services. You can turn Location Services on either during the Setup Assistant process or later through the Location Services setting. You can individually control which apps and system services have access to Location Services data. When Location Services are off, apps can't use your location in the foreground or background. This will limit the performance of various Apple and third-party apps.
Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services.
Cheers!
