While making a sharp left-hand turn heard a pop in the steering wheel and immediately the airbag lights turned on?

Can I ask if you had any steering components changed recently like a steering gear box/rack? If so, the clock spring can be wound up and break which sounds like what has happened. Here is how to change the clock spring out (spiral wire) which should fix the problem. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.

Yep, there you go, the steering wheel can not be moved when the system is apart. The steering wheel will need to be removed to change the part out. Let me know if you need help with that.

Yes, the clock spring snapped. When you had the column off it must have turned and when it was reinstalled it was off enough that when you turned hard it snapped the internal ribbon. Before you take it apart be sure to rotate the wheel to the lock to the left and then to the right and then rotate it back to center. Now lock it in place at the steering shaft. Make sure the tires are straight and then make sure the wheel is straight. Now you can remove the wheel so you can get to the clock spring. Then be sure it is centered. The cable only has a small amount it can turn over the number of turns lock to lock.

Grab a scan tool and see what code is in the SRS system. It is not really possible to say what the issue is without the testing.

The B0022 is a shorted steering wheel SRS cable. It sets if the resistance is under 1.3 ohms. The B0026 on the other hand is set if that same circuit shows a resistance higher than 4.8 ohms.
Does the tool state if those are current or history codes? I was asking because I can see the 0026 code setting after the original part failed as that would be an open circuit. The other code can set if the wiring is shorted. About the only way to test that though is to pull it apart and test for a short in the spiral assembly. I would verify that the connectors are fully seated first, they have a shorting bar inside them that is supposed to block stay voltage from setting off the bag, if it didn't release it would set the 0022 code. The short would be between the Dark Green and White wires coming out of the steering column.

You can erase them, but SRS codes are a full-time testing item. So, if the light is on there is still a problem. Which tool did you get?

Those are likely a current and pending code. B0022 is a short in the system. You need to figure out if the short is in the spring, the harness or farther down. To do that you would unplug the airbag module and then test the two wires, if there is still a short remove the clock spring connector and test again.
