Set position of spinner from variable

I have an activity that recieves two variables called l_source and l_destination and I want to set the default values of two spinners equal to those variables. To do so, I have made a search and I understand that I need to get the position of the value of the variable (will give a number) and then set the new position of the spinner. The problem is that I am trying to use getAdapterPosition and I am sent Cannot resolve method getAdapterPosition(l_source).

EDIT

I finally managed to do it, but it is only working in one spinner. Have you got any idea of why? Here is my code:

Spinner spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.lista_origen);
ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(Main2Activity.this,
R.array.l_source, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
spinner.setSelection(adapter.getPosition(l_source));

Spinner spinner2 = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.lista_destino);
ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter2 = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(Main2Activity.this,
R.array.l_source, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
adapter2.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinner2.setAdapter(adapter2);
spinner2.setSelection(adapter2.getPosition(l_target));

Thank you for your time.
