Hi mmando,
It looks like you're unable to change your Location Services settings, and I want to help.
If you go to Settings > General, do you see an option for Profiles & Device Management?
If you have a managed device or a profile, it might be that this controls your Location Services.
Let me know if that helps.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.

I did not have the option to select profile and device management. I read this as a potential workaround, within other posts, but that didn't apply to my phone.
I needed to reset all settings to get the option back to turn off location services.
I shouldn't have marked "Solved". I still would like to know what causes the iPhone to lock location services, in order to prevent this in the future.
