In my case its call method StopLocationUpdates

[Service]
public class LocationService : Service, ILocationListener
{
....

public override StartCommandResult OnStartCommand(...)
{ 
     return StartCommandResult.Sticky;
} 

public void StopLocationUpdates()
{
    LocManager.RemoveUpdates(this);
    LocManager= null;
}

}
