A quarry will not dig below lava, and a single lava block that gets quarried up usually leaves behind a diamond shape of flowing lava. Is that what you are seeing?

Possibly, but I have reset the quarry to see if that was the issue and it continued with the diamonds

Apparently I need my crystal ball cleaned. While I am doing that, could you give us some pictures?

i had same problem. this may sound wierd but make it completely flat just below were the quarry starts, now heres the wierd part take some lava and completely cover the area the quarry will dig. sound wierd but in nether lava spreads like water. now remove all the lava and restart the quarry. this is what i did to fix mine now i just plug spots of lava that pop up. if this dont work then sorry
