As shown in picture one the yellow box highlighted is part to be removed.
 
Step 1 remove engine cover, air fliter cover, air filter and air filter box then have to remove next piece of intake which is held by a hose clamp once removed should look like picture 2
 
As shown in picture 3 with the yellow circle the green cap is the vent tube. Remove cap I found easiest to remove vent tube from metal bracket used a flat screwdriver. Found easier that way then remove cap from tube, again had to use a flat screwdriver to losen hose from cap. Also you may notice that 2 rubber hoses were disconnected I thought I had to remove more but was not needed.
 
As shown in pic 4 is the syringe style transfer pump. Has a max capacity of 200mL ( in Canada) 
 
I then added 4 full tube with a total of 800ml of fluid but in the process I would pump about 50 mil then remove syringe to burp air so pressure dont build. Do this until all 800 ml is added and re install parts. 
 
Found best to put car on ramps first and made sure I could remove vent cap before draining. My fluid was really dirty im sure it was original with 185km on the car. 

forgot to say after remove air box and filter have to remove next piece of intake which is held by a hose clamp

ok thanks i will take that part off and look again will let you know if I find and do the job.. I'll try and take a pic if I can with it off
 

I was under my Journey today looking for the vent tube and cant find it ... I looked from above.. as asked before can you possible take a pic of the engine bay and roughly show where this tube is as I know mine needs a fluid change bad.

well after taking apart the back hatch rear inside corner panel figured it out the ground where ever it is, is bad. found the wire at the connecter back probed the wire it was the right one but it was a bad ground just cut the wire made a new one and bam defroster working. all back together and all seems well now I just need to try it in the morning and make sure its all good. Thanks for the quick responses. I just wish our Journey's had a hanes manual

Ok yes I checked multiple locations on the actual grid all showing 12 volts but no heating up.. Im stumped as well... It should be working but its not and Ive tried all things I can think of other than Im getting 12volts but the grid isnt heating up... so maybe I need an entire whole new grid as it seems to have no resistance anywhere thus not creating heat
