Abstract: We consider nonnegative solutions $u:OmegalongrightarrowmathbbR$ of second order hypoelliptic equations �egin{equation*} mathscr{L} u(x) =sum_{i,j=1}^n partial_{x_i} left(a_{ij}(x)partial_{x_j} u(x) ight) + sum_{i=1}^n b_i(x) partial_{x_i} u(x) =0, end{equation*} where $Omega$ is a bounded open subset of $mathbb{R}^n$ and $x$ denotes the point of $Omega$. For any fixed $x_{0}inOmega$, we prove a Harnack inequality of this type ${\displaystyle }$sup_K u le C_K u(x_0)qquad forall u mbox{ s.t. } mathscr{L} u=0, ugeq 0,${\displaystyle }$ where $K$ is any compact subset of the interior of the $mathscrL$-propagation set of $x_0$ and the constant $C_K$ does not depend on $u$.
