Set radio button list from vb code behind

Question

I have a radio button list. When the page is loaded I have some scripts and other things that run to determine if an ID has passed or failed a test. So what I am trying to actually do is when that page loads set my radio button to fail after the script runs

Here is the list:

<asp:radiobuttonlist id="rblInspectionStatus" CssClass="descbold"  runat="server" repeatColumns="2" repeatDirection="Horizontal">
       <asp:listitem Value="Pass">Pass</asp:listitem>
       <asp:listitem Value="Fail">Fail</asp:listitem>
</asp:radiobuttonlist>

What I have tried is:

rblInspectionStatus.Items.FindByValue("Fail").Selected = True 
rblInspectionStatus.Items.FindByText("Fail").Selected = True
rblInspectionStatus.SelectedIndex |SelectedItem | SelectedValue

I don't know what you are trying to do in that Sub or as User Tony Hinkle and User NoAlias are trying to say is correct but this is my assumption:

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
            cn.Open() 'Opens the connection
            cmd = New SqlCommand("SELECT PF FROM TABLE WHERE ID = '" & Session("ID") & "'", cn)
            drr = cmd.ExecuteReader
            If drr.Read Then
                rblInspectionStatus.ClearSelection()
                rblInspectionStatus.Items.FindByValue(drr.Items("PF")).Selected = True
            'FIELD PF data either Pass or Fail
            ElseIf Not drr.Read Then
                rblInspectionStatus.ClearSelection()
                rblInspectionStatus.SelectedIndex = -1
            End If
            cn.Close() 'Close the connection
        End Sub
