Steering Wheel Turning Issue

Think i know the solution, but I recently swapped my steering wheel back to the stock one, and this slimy ribbon wire popped out of the steering column, I haven’t driven the car since putting the wheel back on but when I went to drive it earlier the car believed the wheel to be at full lock to the right while it was actually perfectly straight. Anybody know if me rewinding those ribbon wires up incorrectly caused this?

image is of the backup camera when my wheel is completely straight.

I just learned this is called a clock spring, wish I learned about that on a cheaper car, but to fix it essentially it needs to be a bit looser so you can actually turn the wheel, there are a bunch of guides online.
