Has anyone replaced a box mount receptacle connector on servo motor? This one houses a 4 prong connector and I can't push out the center plastic piece that encases the prongs. (The part # is MS3102A22-22p on the broken piece I need to replace.) Perhaps I should remove the servo motor and take it to a motor repair shop who knows what they are doing. But any suggestions here are certainly appreciated. Thanks.

The MS connectors can be had readily from a few suppliers, they are not cheap.
To dismantle a MS connector it usually requires removing a 'C' clip from around the edge of the connector, the inner insulator consists of two pieces which have to be separated in order to remove the pins.
The receptacle with mounting screws and a flange is called a Bulkhead fitting.
When re-assembling, the inner sections can be keyed in different positions, so mark where the pins are in relation to the hub key groove.

Thanks Al,

Sounds like a job for a repair shop to do now. You are right about the price of these connectors. I got one from Dalco.com for 11 bucks but the shipping was 16. I seen them as high as $45 elsewhere.
