Hi JMcCoy79,

You are referencing the correct article for Location Services.
If you are not able to turn it on, perhaps a good first step would be to restart or reset your iPhone, then switch your Wi-Fi or cellular data off and on.
Then try to access Location Services again.

Turning 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 turn it off if you don't want to use this feature or to conserve battery life. You can individually control which apps and system services have access to Location Services data.
Cheers,

I turned off my location services a while ago, and now that option is grey. It won't switch on. The contacts options are also grey, and I can't switch them on or off either. they don't ask for a passcode to alter them
I found it! I had made some restrictions under the general settings
