Check the fluid in the power steering pump! Either you are low or the power steering pump has quit working.

Check to make sure your alternator belt hasnt snapped, the same belt usually drives the power steering.

Battery light is on and stiff to steer the wheel

Sounds like the serpentine bellt has come off the drive pulleys. this belt is the link between the crankshaft pulley and all the other pulleys. it drives the power steering pump, a/c compressor, and your alternator.
Stiff steering due to no Power steering pump activity and the battery light is on due to the alternator not charging the battery and supplying power to vehicle components.
