Citrus can be tricky. I grow a Meyer lemon tree here in CA so I can try to help. Did you get any fruit this winter? Has it been pruned? Has it been fertilized with a specialty citrus food? Do you see any pests on the tree anywhere? Thrips love citrus. How long has it been in that spot and has it flowered and fruited before?

It has been in this spot for about 5 years. It flowered and fruited the first 3 years last year it had only 2 lemons so far this year it has not fruited. We have fertilized it and I’m not sure how to look for pests like what to look for.
