   Color blindness does not work like that. Color blind people can still   
   see colors, they just have problems with some specific colors or color   
   combinations. The most common variety is the red/green type. It makes   
   it difficult to tell the difference between red and brown, and also to   
   see small red objects if they're surrounded by green. Finding   
   cranberries, for example, is nearly impossible.   
      
   If he was consistently mixing up, say, orange and brown, it would be   
   plausible that color blindness could be the issue. But if he was even   
   mixing up the white banded wires with the solid color wires, then   
   color blindness is not the (only) issue.   
      
   So, yes, there must have been something else at play here.
