I have a 2019 Macbook Air running macOS Big Sur 11.3.1 and location services are NOT working.
Date and time per location, location on Maps, location on Find My, etc all are not functioning.
Any help, please.
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.3
Totally agree with @Luis S on the Antivirus Software - Effective defenses against malware and other threats and AntiVirus, Disk Cleaner, Optimizers, Defrag, VPNs etc installed which should be removed as per Developers Instructions. They are useless, unneeded, cause havoc and interfere with the normal operation of the OS and may even Corrupt the OS requiring a Reinstallation.

Sorry if I'm pointing out the obvious... are you sure you have Location Services enabled, in
System Preferences->Security & Privacy->Privacy->Location Services?
You could try turning it off, and then back on, to see if it makes a difference.
Did you install any "cleaners" or "antivirus"?

I do have Bitdefender antivirus running, could that be the cause of location services not working?
Possibly. Any third party antivirus should not be used. They only cause trouble and offer no added security.
Good call by P. Philips about VPN too - that would be a very likely cause, if it were in use.

Added - any VPN in play - Don't use VPN services.
I do use NORD VPN but, I don't have it running currently.
