The location is not working on my Nexus 5 phone. It did last week. Now Google Maps, Android Device Manager, nothing can access my GPS. My location is turned on under settings. Any thoughts?

I might have to factory reset it. Just wanted to see if anyone has any better ideas.
 
I screwed up my map gps location a few weeks ago. It just wouldn't locate me but on other gps apps were working. Finally figured out I was my own worst enemy. I turned off location tracking in Google play service through appsOp. Didn't realize that affected google maps.
