Reader Quotas with Untyped Messages

I have an operation contract that uses untyped messages. When using the message, I get an error telling me to change the quota settings on the XmlReader. Where are these quotas located? I'm not using an XmlReader.

A message represents an XML InfoSet. While there are many different ways to access the content of a Message, in a standard implementation, all of these methods are wrappers around the core XmlReader and XmlWriter infrastructure. If there is no obvious XmlReader, then that means that the XmlReader is being used by the internal implementation of the message. Therefore, whoever created the Message must have been the one that knew about the XmlReader and its quotas. Since most of the messages that you deal with inside of a service operation were created by the message encoder of the binding, the first place to look for the quota settings are either on the binding or the binding element.
