A custom data service does not "stop" and replace data in a record. Written properly, it should just augment it.
But, it's hard to say what's happening without seeing what you're doing. Make sure you're adding to the even record, and not replacing it. Also, make sure that you're adding the service to the list of services to be run (under [Engine] // [[Services]] in weewx.conf) and not displacing another service.
