Hi


As the button for turning on Location Services is greyed out, Restrictions are likely enabled on your iPhone.


To turn them off (your Restrictions passcode will be required):


Go to: Settings > General > Restrictions > Location Services > select Allow Changes.


Note that it may not be possible to change the Restrictions setting if restrictions are enforced on your iPhone (via a configuration profile, mobile device management or Exchange policy). If so, contact your device administrator for help.
