Geoff,
There are three regimes of bank: shallow, medium, and steep. In a shallow turn you must keep pressure on the ailerons in the direction of turn to keep the aircraft from rolling back towards wings level. In a steep turn you must use aileron pressure opposite to the direction of turn in order to keep the plane from rolling further into the turn. A medium bank turn is one in which all the forces equal out, and aileron pressure is not necessary once the turn is established. The bank angle ranges vary from one aircraft to another, and they also vary based on the airspeed of the aircraft as well.
No, your yoke is (most likely) not broken.
This should have been taught to you during your PPL training. It should have been a fundamental learning point that later training was built on. It should have been a discussion you had with your instructor when you began practicing steep turns, at the very least.
