Find My iPhone not selectable in settings

I just updated my phone to IOS 17.1.1 and now I can't log in to sign my iPhone. I was logged out and it says sign in through settings, but When I go to settings then Apple ID, find my iPhone is not highlighted. It also doesn't highlight iCloud, so I can’t select those. How do I fix that?
