I believe most quinces are at least partially self fertile. I'd suspect
weather at pollination time, when does it normally flower? Our gages
have no fruit at all, I have a friend at Tiptree Jams, they've had poor
set on all their plums, didn't ask him about quinces.

Could it be that it's not self fertile and whatever was providing
pollen has died or been removed?
