What to fix
Ensure that color is not the only means of conveying information.
Why fix it
People who are blind, have low vision, or are colorblind might miss out on the meaning conveyed by particular colors.
For example, add an underline to color-coded hyperlink text so that people who are colorblind know that the text is linked even if they can’t see the color. For headings, consider adding bold or using a larger font.

-
Select your text.
